The security handbook has some pre-install considerations:
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/security/index.xml

Other than that, follow the normal installation guide.
When you get to 5.b, make sure you get a
stage3-hardened
tarball instead of just stage3.
Proceed as normal until 6.b, where you pick a hardened profile.

Then you can go back to the security handbook and harden to your heart desire.
