Finishing a 2056 build with new 2L head castings, new WebCam cam, etc. Valve geometry done and SAT, so have custom lenght new Chrome Moly push rods. From all the searches it seems the consensus is zero valve clearance with these push rods and we also installed new genuine 911 swivel feet adjusters.
Can we get a general consensus to confirm ZERO running valve clearance is preferred? or IF not what is the recommended clearance? Thanks jjs3rd914 |

So how does the noise compare between aluminum PRs at stock clearance vs. chrome moly at zero clearance? It's a question I've been wanting to ask. This seemed like a good time.

This seemed like a good time. Definitely noisier, not too bad though, price you pay for performance cam. Head work, heavier than stock springs, cam, etc., in my book CrMo pushrods are a must. I only use quality Manton PR's. There's no reason to use steel push rods on a stock engine. |
