Great input everyone.. I replaced the two-(2) valve adjustment screws that I stripped out along with the rocker shaft seals. All is good now.
Yes, I used a 6" extension on a torque wrench. The deviation in torque is not significant. I verified that the adjustment screw didn't move after the final torque was applied. I used 10 ft-lb as a final torque for anyone that is interested. I also removed excess oil from the adjsutment screw and nut prior to torque.
I find it humorous that the original poster of the 20 ft-lb torque value chimed in as well. Save me $40 bucks next time and don't post erroneous information please. 
I truly appreciate all of the great information on this forum. Next time I'll await further confirmation of information. I figure that this was easy since many of you have likely performed a valve adjustment in the past.
