back into garage tonight.

Since the cam timing was in specs
and the valve cover removed. I decided to check the clearances...manual states to set valves warm to tolerance of .007 intake and .011 exhaust..Ive allowed .02 over cold. till eng eventually takes..eventually ..the key word.

but cold I found the following cold clearances

#2 intake was.005
#3 exhaust was less than .004..it was smallest feeler I had
#6 intake was .004
#6 exhaust was .006

the rest were all .013 and .009 respectively exhaust and intake.

to review fuel and carb(again) tommarrow
