engine builders…advice

I am finishing off my rebuild of my 69 340 with the installation of new lifters and stainless 273 type adjustable roller rocker and I have just a few questions. When it comes to the adjustment of the rockers..should I soak the lifters first/pump them up or just lube them up cold and drop them in before I adjust? It is a Comp Cams Hydraulic cam/lifter set up. I kind of know how to do the adjustments(hail Mary's combined with lots of beer and crossed fingers) but if you have a tip or two that you can lend I would really appreciate it. Thank you, Doug
