It can be used to fine tune a combo.

On builds that will see more street duty, I will often tell them to show a slightly tighter lash setting, since running them on the tighter side is easier on the lifters.

And then....... sometimes the card is just wrong.
I had a solid roller sent to a customer one time, he called to question the lash.
It was listed as “HYD”.


That makes sense Dwayne. Thanks for clarifying. I had no idea that sometimes the eng combo designer will sometimes specify that based on intended usage. I thought it was necessary based on the lobe design and profile “only”. Good to know.
