Hi all can anyone tell me what the valve clearance is for a 3K i hot a new cam in it and the clearances ive been given still tick like a bugga. Just chasing the standard clerances, so can get her running overrated

My Crow cam came with 16thou specs, and as you've found it was very noisy. I'm running 10 & 12 now, I don't think it is really crucial unless you're racing the car and the gap can be used to adjust the cam timing then, so long as there is a gap when its hot.

 

One tappet is still noisy, I'm sure the rocker is worn away to a groove, its impossible to find without stripping it.

Cheers guys
