Hans, I check piston-to-valve by the "light spring" method. My "close" spot,is about 10- degrees before TDC on the exhaust valve.
oh yeah... it was an intake lifter... hot clearance had been set to .014" ( .016" hot by the cam card from Comp )

Thank you Aubrey.
What spring pressure do you use?
The "light spring" method shows the least amount of clearance does it not?
