#1 PostAuthor: tightwad » Tue Jul 30, 2013 8:09 pm

hi all, thought i would check valve clearance on my a2, ive set them to .05 to.1 as per manual, four of them had less than .05 clearance.
Trouble is the cams are not standard, from what i can work out from other posts i have got some kenny harman cams with k/d spec grind on them, i can find a d spec grind but not k/d, so question is does anybody know what clearance i should be using, any help or info on these cams much appreciated

thanks ken

Never go below 0.10 .
You can go as wide as 0.18 for fast road/race cams.
I always set mine as close to 0.15 on all big zed engines whatever the spec.
