I didn't read all of this because it's late, but I'm a HUGE fan of the backside method. I've done it the traditional ways but this is a fool proof process.
The first couple of times I did a valve adj with Oh Haha we set it doing the traditional method and double checking it with the backside method. Now we set it with the backside method and check it using the traditional way. It's worked out the best!
