Geoff,

Is the clearance increasing or decreasing? If decreasing, consider that it
could be the valves seating in or some seat recession beginning.

Cheers,
Lew Palmer

Hello All.
I've decided to swap from Redex Lead Replacement to Tetra boost.  Does
anyone 
have any opinions on what concentration, i.e. what Star / Octane rating 
should be used in a mildly blown (about 3 to 4 lbs) PA.  I've increased the
size of 
the exhaust valves (now the same as the inlet valves) so there isn't enough 
room to fit hardened seats.
On another topic, I've just noticed a tiny difference in the cam / valve 
clearance.  Does anyone have any tech. info of the cam profiles so that I
can 
check to see if the hardening on the cam has broken down causing wear?
Many Thanks
Geoff Rawlings
