 Re: Valve lash
Factory setting say intake 0.004 And Ext at 0.006
I just reset the at .002 intake and ext at .003 Starts easy now.
Do I take it you can increase torque by play With your lash? If so which valve lash should I play with.
I also put a alliunium flywheel on the motor Due to the cast iron one one the motor was Chinese Do you thank a bunch torque will loss now.

 Re: Valve lash
That may be to tight? Might screw your cam up. Hopefully a more knowledgeable person will clarify

 Re: Valve lash
Too tight will round off a lobe, factory valve settings are around .005-.006

 Re: Valve lash
The surfaces on your cam that look all crazy that tells the engine what parts to move and how much. I'm sure there is a better explanation. But I'm sure you get the point
