What is max preload on comp 850-16 lifters? I am getting the rockers on now and with the 7.400" PRs, I have roughly .150" preload and with the 7.350" PR's, I have around .080" to .100" preload.
What is to much?
I was thinking .060" to .080" is the norm. Am I right?

Cool. Thanks guys. Patrick recommended the 7.4 pr's and they seem to be putting well over .100". The 7.350's are staying in. I will be firing it up tomorrow night. I can't hardly wait. It's been 6 months since it's been running.
