My 2.0 (actually probably about 2.2 with oversized cylinders) car has had a Webcam 73 in it since a complete overhaul in 2010. I have used the usual recommendation of .006 intake and .008 exhaust for 15 years. I recently read something (and I can't recall where) that said that with the Webcam, the exhaust should be at .006. I know the 1.7 and 1.8 engines called for that, and maybe the source was referring to those engines, but I am curious. It's time for another adjustment. I've always assumed that a bit more clearance might mean the engine will be noisier, but it's less likely to be a cause for deep regrets that setting them too tight. Anybody ever heard this suggestion for .006 on the 2.0 cars?

Here's what Webcam says:

.006 intake and .006 exhaust, but if you're running aftermarket pushrods (i.e. chromoly versus aluminum), make sure to look at what the manufacturer says.
