just remember that a lil tick isnt bad... that means it a bit loose and you wont burn up a valve. when you adjust them make sure its on the looser side of the given specification because a burnt valve is noooo fun.

you shouldnt have to pay to get them adjusted... just need to take a couple hours and do it on your own. all you need to do it get some "feeler gauges", take off the valve cover, be able to turn the crank to get the adjustments right, sip a but not too much or ya could sound like a machine gun goin down the street. haha took me about 2 hours to get my b16 all is tip top shape. haha.
