alright, I have a "water temp above 45*C" number and a "water temp below 30*C" number unless I misread it and that's ambient...

Well Anyway, I'll wait a while...like I said this is my first time and I've just been outside playing around with it. I got a few questions now after fiddling around...

Can more than one valve be adjusted in a specific engine position. Like if besides the lift there is a constant radius it should be the same if I set a valve with the cam lobe 180* and not right at 180*. I've read people saying they've done both and never read if it was wrong to do a couple valves at once. Also, what's a good way to make sure it's right, I've been just using the feeler gages the way I was taught, that they shouldn't slide through too easilly but also not too hard, a little drag is good, but is there a foolproof way, like if I dont' trust myself, or is the med amount of drag put it within tolerances?

edit: I'm just gonna wait till either tonight or tomorrow anyway... better off because I have a .102mm and a .302 mm so they should be fine.
