#1 Piston, all valve train mocked up, lash 0.0 , dial indicator mounted on intake rocker, roll over to TDC on the intake stroke, push down on rocker .078 movement, 5 degrees after TDC .041 clearance, 10 degrees after TDC .039 clearance,

Exhaust valve P/V clearance minimum at 10 BTDC IS .108

I don't remember if I put this 278@.050 roller cam in straight up or advanced but it looks like retarding it would not be a option with the .108 clearance.

440ci .060 over steel rod .040 HEAD gasket

looking for fixes LOL (piston valve notches). or run it BB- BOOOOMM??
anyone run .040 P/V intake clearance?

I think the exhaust will suffice
Thanks
