.02mm or .008 inches is the lash and do it once when installed, once at 500 miles then every 10k after that.
Yes it sucks and hurts your back to adjust them, but the lumpy goodness is well worth it.

Toda recommends 0.20mm cold

I found the following works best on about 5 different cars, feel free to try it:
ex .006; in .008
