So....everything I have read says .015 hot. In John Twist's video, he says that he uses .015 for everything up to an 18V. Mine is an 18V....what do I use?

Travis, I adjust my 74' .015 cold and .013 hot. Look on the front radiator cross member and it should givew you the numbers you need. Better a little too loose than too tight. If you have the latest Moss catalog, look on page 3, the tech specs. are listed there. Good luck.

Stock cam is .015" cold then on the 18V they said to adjust hot and the spec changed to .013"

Aftermarket cam is whatever they tell you ;)

I've got Brit-tek's 270B cam....its somewhere between what most people would refer to a 1/2 race and 3/4 race cam. I'll have to give Bob a call I guess
