Default Not Sure about Valve Clearance... Help me :)

Hi guys, well, i finnally looked the head and valves and they were good, i installed everything back, and now the engine runs perfectly, except, i found that i adjusted the valves in the wrong clearance,

Do you guys know what is the clearance of them, the intake and exhaust!


thanks!
