Measurements for plug gauge to check tappet clearance

I may have found the problem with lifter noise after removal of several valves I installed 1 and found that valve stems are stock length and the lifter is bottomed out when the cam is at tdc on compression stroke. After putting the old valves next to the new valve the valve stems were the same . I was wondering if anyone had the measurements for a Plug gauge to check tappet clearance on 1941 super 8
