valve adjustment question:

I have always checked and adjusted my valves one cylinder at a time, ie. intake/exhaust on cylinder 1, cylinder 2, etc....

What I was wondering is this: is there any harm or disadvantage to doing all of the intakes first, then all of the bottom (exhaust) valves? How about all of the left side cylinders, then all of the right?

I realize that someone might be wondering, "what is the point?" The reason is because my back is so bad that I can barely work on a car anymore, and the getting in and out from under the car is the worst. With an ltd. slip and an (attractive) assistant to tell me when the marks line up on the pully I could do all of the bottom ones in one operation on my back.

Thanks in advance for your input.
