Valve Timing correction for '48 356 Engine

Posted by Mike Dowd On 2015/9/8 16:27:31
I just replaced a chipped cam follower on my '48 356 cu. in. engine. I did the timing check as described in the shop manual and find that the #8 exhaust valve hydraulic plunger breaks loose at TDC instead of 10 deg after TDC. The crank and cam timing marks are spot-on and the chain is new. I will retard the cam sprocket one tooth and try that. Does anyone have any experience with this issue?
