Default Re: mopar valve adjustment

First know how much preload works best for your application. Second divide the number of threads per inch of your adjuster into 1. that tells you how much preload per turn off adjuster. as an example if you have a 20 tpi adjuster that's .050" per turn. if you want .012" preload that would be 1/4 turn past zero lash. hope this helps.

First thing I would ask is what height solid are you using to check the cam lift with?

I would do Zero lash plus 1/4 for that set up.

Years ago 440 with hyd cam in a bracket car. After making a lot of adjustments and a lot of runs, zero lash then 1/4 turn was best.
