are as follows:
1. Improper valve-to-piston clearance (this should be no less than 0.080").
2. Rocker arm stud slot clearance (both ends; valve closed and open).

• SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
With the Edelbrock manifold and camshaft package plus a header
installation, a carburetor jet change may be required for best perfor-
mance. Due to the varied applications of year and model of vehicles,
no one combination could suffice for all installations. The following
procedure is only a guideline and in many cases, the manufacturing
specifications for recommended carburetors or timing may be best.

• IGNITION
TIMING
Ignition timing for this package may vary with each application. A
good starting figure would be between 10 degrees to 14 degrees initial
timing at idle with vacuum advance disconnected. Total advance
should not exceed 32 degrees to 34 degrees with initial and centrifugal
good starting figure would be between 10 degrees to 14 degrees initial
timing at idle with vacuum advance disconnected. Total advance
should not exceed 32 degrees to 34 degrees with initial and centrifugal
weights combined and should be at full advance at 3000-3500 rpm.
After timing is adjusted, re-connect the vacuum advance line.
NOTE: The best combination for any particular vehicle or application
must be determined by trial and error using the above information as a
guideline.

• HEADERS
For best performance, headers are recommended. For this application,
they should be 1-5/8" or 1-3/4" diameter, approximately 31" long and
terminating into a 3" collector. The remainder of the exhaust system
should consist of dual exhaust and tail pipes, at least 2" diameter with
low back-pressure mufflers.
