Full open. The "pair" are not on the same cylinder.

For example, I think the book says turn the motor 'till 10 and 12 are 
fully down and adjust 1 and 3 - so the pair is an intake and an exhaust 
and you adjust and intake and exhaust (none on the same cylinder.

The "on the rock" thing works where you adjust the valves on one cylinder 
when the other cylinder of the pair is in the state you descibe (exh 
closing, intake opening).

The pairs for TR6 are 1/6, 2/5 and 3/4

Either method works fine.
