Piston to valve clearance

[SS Engine Guy]

You got some pretty good advice there. Only thing that I will add is to make sure everything in the valve train is up to spec and closely monitored. Also check P/V clearance at least 10 degrees BTC and 10 degrees ATC at each increment and log the readings for future reference. I usually log every 2 degrees to 20 degrees both ways and furnish that with other records on an engine. Good record keeping can make maintenance much easier.
