Hi All,
Just about to fit a set of long skirt followers to my Series 2, which has later XJ6 cams, C35555 and C35556. The recommended clearance is 12-14 Inlet and Exhaust which sounds a touch vague. They were previously between 10 and 12 thou.
Some seem to say set them a little tighter than recommended, just wondered what forum members thoughts are?
Thank you
Regards
Simon

Hi Simon...not vague at all.....12-14.....aim for 13 and you will be spot on........probably will take 2 or 3 goes till they are all set between 12-14.....Steve
