Hydraulic lifter conversion recommended valve lash

stocker396 · 04-03-2019, 05:07 PM

Just converted my old Shubecks from hydraulic to solid. Still running a hydraulic profile cam. Bullet brand cam

The question is what lash should I set it at now?

I was between .0 and .003 before

.006 and .010 works for me!

What was the open spring press.with the Shubecks?.If it was 400+you will not be able to run that with a uncoated solid lifter on the same cam.As far as lash .006-.008. gsa612
