masking tape the shims in, then point the rocker arms all up, bolt on, remove all tape (can get fiddly)

well, you could

a) buy new retainer clips
b)have all the rockers facing upwards and flip them one by one when its sittin atop the cam (can get fidley and may drop some.
c) wrap a little tape around it, position the rocker gear and pull the tape out
