Hi All,

 

Been confusing myself searching threads on this, and thought I'd ask the question, as I don't have a lot of prep time left before L2b.

 

Basically I've got a 276 & titan 1.5 rollers, 1380,  currently set at 15thou (been dyno'd like this), and they're loud and clattery on idle, a lot louder than normal rockers.

 

They're not hitting the rocker box (steel MPi), what should the valve clearances be for this setup?

 

Driving me mad searching through the threads and getting myself more confused.

 

 

 

Thanks

 

Sam

I have a 286 with 1.5 roller-tip rockers and I set 0.016" exhaust and 0.012" inlet at cold. Seems to work OK.

Cheers Cooperman, will set them when I get home from work. Think part of the noise might be down to fact they're full roller rockers, will see in a few hours :)
