early 56 hot valve lash settings
Hi All,
Getting ready to start up 1956 car no. 10 for first time in 50 plus years. Rebuilt engine about 15 years ago but never adjusted valves did not want to stress springs. I think hot lash should be .008 intake and .018 for exhaust. It has the early cam like in later 55's solid lifter. I had the original tube that cam came in from GM which had the specs on the side of it but it has disappeared thru the years. Does anyone have any advice?
Thanks Mike
