solid lifter valve lash setting
i have been asking around about setting the valve lash for a solid lifter cam
the cam card says set the intake at .022 and the exhaust at .024 hot
what would you set them at cold ?
thanks

Set them a few thousandths wider, warm the engine up good and reset them hotYesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!
