I got Patrick's mild cam with solids. Hot lash is .08 and .18 on stock cam. Patricks son says use stock setting, but gave me a different value. Anyone get his mild cam and setting to use? Or have a cold setting for the stock cam? Cecil........ | | | | | Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 1,513 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 1,513 |
