Porsche Crest 3.2 Valve adjustment first time

Hello everyone!
this is my first post here. I have been reading for awhile but just never signed up. Bought the engine rebuilding and 101. Wyane these are the really masterpeices. I usually have one or the other in my hand for at least an hour a day and I haven't done one project yet. long story short, had a 89 coupe last year for about 6 months (fresh engine and tranny rebuild) that was hit by a 16 year old and totalled (he had his license for about 3 months before he hit me). Never got around to doing any of the projects. Bought an 86 targa last week and it needs a valve adjust. My friend tried a valve adjustment on his motorcyle years ago and keeps telling me its impossible to do the 911 myself. he says its a precision machine let a pro do it. I would like to one day be the "pro" that does it. I have read your book and the online tech article. I am just wondering if there are any first time stories that you guys would share with me. I guess im just looking for reassurance its not that big a deal. And I would love to spend that 1000 bucks that would go to the shop on more parts to do more things to the car.

thanks,
Frank

PS would anyone care to hear another AA horror story with the DR
