I got a new micrometer from HF, with a vice-grip base. I started getting stuff set up, and then I started second guessing myself.
My cam lobes for In and Ex are .465 (according to the cam card). Raby's guide to setting geometry says to "preload" the dial indicator. Valve lash is set to zero. I have positioned the indicator so that it shows .5 (halfway though it's travel). So, when that valve is fully depressed, my goal is to get the dial indicator to read .035 (+/- .023 [5% of .465]) right? (.5-.465=.035) Am I doing this properly? Zach |
