I've never used them, and I'm sure they're decent, but I have a problem with the preload they say to set them at. According to Comp's instructions, they say zero to 1/4 turn for preload from zero lash.

In other words, they are saying zero lash is fine?

Yeah, pretty much, but imagine what that ends up as once the engine is hot and all that aluminum expands. You actually end up with lash like a solid roller instead of preload.

I run the Johnson Short Travel... they have .052" of total travel. I set my preload at .034"... runs fine and is quiet.
