Default Valve Lash on a '71 455 HO

I've got a '71 T/A with the 455 HO engine. I'm running a Comp Cams Xtreme energy cam with matching lifters, springs, retainers, locks & pushrods.

I'm using the big block chevy style rocker studs to make the valvetrain adjustable.

Looking for opinions on what to set the valve lash at. Zero plus 1/4 turn, 1/2 turn, 3/4 or other? What do you guys usually do on an adjustable valvetrain?
