I need to adjust the lifters on my 1979 225cid slant-6. The 1976-1980 Aspen Chilton Manual's table for valve specifications lists the "Stem to Guide" clearance in inches as: Intake .0010-.0030 Exhaust .0020-.0040 Are these specs correct? I don't remember the feeler gauges being so thin last time I did this. Appreciate someone verifying this for me. Tnx, David mrhart@trusted.net |

However you are looking for the valve lash, or rocker arm to valve tip clearance. This is .010 for the intake, and .020 for the exhaust, on a motor at normal operating temp, with solid lifters and adjustable valve train. With hyd. lifters there is no adjustment.
