FC valve lash setting needed
That's a good number. Not a bad plan to check the spring pressures too. Moroso
makes a cheap "fish scale" type of tool to check spring loads on the engine.
Consistency is what one want's to see. Most broken valves are due to weak
spring load resulting in valve flutter or lack of control, makes thing hard on
the cam lobe and lifters too. Springs can be changed on the engine, just don't
forget to place the piston in the cylinder being serviced at top dead.
