MGB MGB VALVE LASH

Set 'em hot
 
I set mine at .013 [overly warm]. Works for me! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazyeyes.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/driving.gif PJ
 
Just did mine this monring and then noticed this thread. I did it hot @ .015" Should I do it at .013" while hot?
 
All dependes on what cam you have fitted, if std 13" HOT is they way to go, or if your going to give it a hard time 15" is fine
 
It's a shame that they never put hydraulic lifters in these little British engines. Sure would have eliminated a problem for some. Also would run quieter. But then it wouldn't be a "B", would it? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cheers.gif PJ
