340 Cold Valve Lash Unknown Cam


No one set the lash at .032. No one.

It was said to check the lash as it now is because it’s running and evidently not killing itself.

Since the OP or none of us know what the cam is, there is just as much possibility that the cam is a DC grind and the lash for most of those cams the lash was .028-.032.

So if per chance the OP finds them that loose he has no reason to panic and start changing lash. It may be what is called for and he can change the lash from there and observe the results.

I have seen some tight lash rollers that called out .010-.012 lash but he doesn’t have a roller cam.

I’ve also lash hydraulic roller lobes with solid lifters at .003-.004 but the OP doesn’t have that either.
Right not a solid roller but am running a solid flat tappet.
