To adjust rocker arms with solid lifters, first ensure the engine is at top dead center (TDC) on the compression stroke for the cylinder you're adjusting. Loosen the rocker arm nut, then gradually tighten it until you feel resistance, and continue tightening an additional specified number of turns (typically 1/4 to 1/2 turn, depending on your engine's specifications). Finally, check for proper clearance by rotating the engine and ensuring the pushrod spins freely without excessive play. Repeat this process for each cylinder as needed.

350 small block vortec heads the lifters rattle?

If it's actually the rockers arms that are "chattering" while the engine runs, you may need to adjust the lash. If there are Solid lifters in the engine, you may want to switch to hydraulic lifters and adjust the rockers to the moment of "zero lash". Adjust them in pairs per cylinder while the lifters are in the down position (both valves closed). When you reach zero lash on the rocker arm (the pushrod will suddenly stop spinning freely in your fingers) add an additional quarter turn to the rocker arm nut to set the "pre-load" of the lifter. This just means that the pushrod will be pushed down slightly in the spring loaded hydraulic lifter and when the engine runs, the oil pressure will keep pressure on the lifter and thus the rocker arms will run silently.
