I've put in a Comp Cam in a 1965- 656 block and I'm having a hell of a time setting up the hydraulic lifter setting. To make it run somewhat properly, the valve lash setting now is only 1/16th down on the nut. If I try to set the lifter at the usual 3/4- 1 full turn, the valves are open and the engine obviously will not start. The cam specs are as follows:
Comp Cam # 48-000-5
Adv. is 275 int/exh
Dur.@.050 is 224 int/exh
lube sep-110.0
valve lift .526/.526
Is this the way they(Comp Cam) want me to set the lash or is this the wrong cam? Is there something wrong with my brand new hydraulic lifters? I did pre-load before firing her up.
