Topic: Custom Setup: Tappet Adjustment?

[jandrea]

I have a 76 550F that i just put a 500 head on and 650 cam in.  I'm wondering if anyone can tell me if i can still use the stock tappet adjustment settings or if they can suggest some different measurements for me?

Thanks

500/550 have the same setting. is the 650 different? if it is, i would use the 550 setting, or if there a zone that both share, do it in that zone.

my Claymer say .002 intake and .003 exhaust. i find on the site the same setting for the 81 650. someone will have to cinfirm this, but it would solve the problem.
