By what book? What clearances did you use, and did you adjust them cold or hot?

The book said --INTAKE 0.14-----EXHAUST--0.16

I have a bubby that works for Ford when the 2.8 came out Ford said set them at---Intake 0.12----Exhaust---0.14 it will run great.A lot of people don't know this it's good to have bubby on the inside.

they should have some noise anyway, since its a solid lifter cam.But not crazy noisy.
