Find true top center of cyl#1 and zero degree wheel
Dial indicator on #1 intake lifter and rotate engine to find max lobe lift
Zero indicator at max lift
Rotate additional .050" and mark wheel
Rotate counter clockwise to .070" to remove chain slack and then back to clockwise to .050"
and mark wheel
Add 2 #s together and divide by 2
This is how we do all the engines at our shop and how I tell all my cam customers to do it regardless of cam type
Remember you must use a SOLID LIFTER during this exercise sir
Thanks
