Valve clearance range.
I inspected my valves at 8,500 miles and all the exhaust valves are out of spec. All the intake are in spec but on the tight side. I have the hot cams kit and will go ahead and just re shim all the valves I think. My question, is it best to shim to the middle of the specified range or on the loose end?
Exhuast clearance: .007 .011 .008 .006
Existing shims: .112 .113 .113 .110
Intake clearance: .006 .007 .007 .006
Existing shims: .114 .114 .111 .113
Note, all the shims showed slight wear and none of the size markings were legible. Measurements taken with digital calipers.
So who wants to help me figure out the new shim sizes?
