solid lash adjustment
I'm setting the lash on a new motor with a solid cam.It says to set both at
.023.But when there is no pressure on the pushrods there seems to be alot of play.How much is normal?I'm setting these cold,I let the lifters soak in oil for a few days before installing.When I bring #1 up to TDC the lifters are just a little up out of the lifter bores but even with each other.But on some of the other cylinders the lifters are a little below the top of the lifter bore and the push rods on those cylinders have alot of play,almost to where you can get the pushrod out of the lifter.I set the lash on all lifters and noticed this problem.Is the play normal on a solid flat tappet cam?Thanks.
Dammit, another good ol boy gone. Condolence to the family. RIP Mike
