David Mac Posted June 7, 2007 Report Posted June 7, 2007 I need some advice on what to set my valve lash at from someone with a non-stock cam. I have a 3/4 grind cam. What settings for Ex & In do you use and is that a cold setting or Hot? Also how does the timing differ. Thanks, David Quote
Normspeed Posted June 7, 2007 Report Posted June 7, 2007 Hi David, on my 218 reground cam they recommended .012 intake and exhaust, hot. IMHO better to be a hair loose rather than tight on the adjustment. I set my timing with a timing light, at idle, at 4 degrees btdc. Runs good. Quote
martybose Posted June 7, 2007 Report Posted June 7, 2007 I've been setting mine at .010" intake and .012" exhaust COLD, as I haven't worked up the enthusiasm to try a hot adjustment with my header setup. No problems so far! Marty Quote
