If the valve lash is too tight, rather than loose, you would certainly be down on power.

then check the lash on the valves,there are some extemely smart people on here but no one can give you a magic fix to your problems.

black not being rude but it sounds like you should have a mechanic look at your car. Sounds like you are in over your head. I know they dont come cheap but in the long run you could of saved some money. Im not ashamed to admit when i built my motor i had a good friend who builds race motors adjust my valves for me. Atleast i know they were done right.

Trying to help, but it appears all I'm doing is upsetting you.... so I'll back off and leave you alone.

Sorry.... didn't mean to irritate you.

Shoebox has some great tutorials on his website, valve lash setup being one of them. Might be worth it to check it out: www.shbox.com
