Re: Piston to valve clearance?

NEVER make assumptions about valve-to-piston clearance!! Always check. It is an excellent practice to check all cylinders instead of only one or two for PTV clearance during assembly, particularly if the engine has aftermarket parts.

Piston to valve clearance always needs to checked, no matter how sure you are that you have ample clearance.
