I'm getting close to starting my rebuilt F 145 for the first time. The head was resurfaced with new valves and the cam was reground by Delta in Tacoma, WA, plus reground crank new bearing, rings, etc. I'm wondering what I should set my valves at cold before starting so that when I break in the cam at startup and the engine warms up the valves will be approximately at 0.008" and 0.014" intake and exhaust clearances, respectively? What do you all think?
Cheers,
Mike
