Yep, I would agree.Both are outside "new" spec but within wear limits.
19.00-19.02 (new) 19,05 (limit)
18.98-18.96 (new) 18.93 (limit).
Thanks for the advice.HD Aluminum pushrods, such as the ones John @ Aircooled.net sells, would work great!
Makes perfect sense, thanks for your time.Since alu pushrods will expand at a greater rate than the cast iron/alu stack comprised of the cyls and head, valve lash will close as temps increase. So start with a reasonable lash all around, like .006", then run the engine to full operating temp. I would want a .001-.002" hot lash, so set one pair of valves to that while hot, or whatever hot lash would feel safe to you. Let the engine cool overnight and check the cold lash on that pair, that will be your cold lash for all.
Lots of engines required setting valve lash hot (some even while running) but once you shut the engine off, temp is falling as you work. Cold lash is a better spec to have because the engine isn't changing temp as you work, plus it's just a lot less unpleasant working on a cold engine.
