So, as you can see Fred, others also with lots experience, have chimed in with their own life long experience of setting valve lash on a solid cam V8 similar, as in your example.

You cannot possibly measure a solid cam valve lash in the blink of an eye.

Or can you adjust the solid valve lash in an OHC engine with shim adjustment with the engine running? That I would like to see.

Setting lash with 2 feeler gauges per setting, the 2nd .001 bigger gives us a "go,no-go" for those that can't get the feel correct, example .018 is the target, and add a .019 as the "no-go".

I'm ending this now.
