Stock lash should be fine. 0.17mm intake, 0.19mm exhaust.

I'm running .009" because thats where WebCams wants the valve lash to be set at. Your LMAs could also be sticking too if your valve lash is set to stock.

0.17mm and 0.19mm. It translates into 0.007" and 0.008", roughly.

One is in inches and the other in millimeters.

Your lash setting should be stock, if you're running stock cams.

.17mm / 25.4 = .00669"
.19mm / 25.4 = .00748"

Torque spec for the lock nuts? When I adjust mine I just tighten them up snug.
