Correct lifter height?

Does anyone know of the correct lifter height? Just want to make sure my lifters are not sticking...

The reason behind this is that I have piston to valve clearance issue and nothing adds up. The heads checked out, the cam was checked out ok, pushrods were of shorter length, but it is still hitting. So I need to check the lifters now.

Thanks

Re: Correct lifter height?

Your 240 duration cam screws are probably your problem. You probably got the non locking type.

Make sure you didnt over grease your Muffler bearings, that will reduce clearance by .020

LOL guys, cam screws were JB welded and the Muffler bearings are self lubricating ball bearings. So no problems there.

On the serious note, can someone help? Please?
