Two questions.
1. Got an 885 head with stock cam..When the hash mark on the cam sprocket is aligned with the mark on the cylinder head, this should indicate TDC correct? When the mark is aligned the valves are completely closed. I found this graph for M20 valve lift that indicates about 1mm of lift at TDC. So what am I doing wrong?
2. Which angle (relative to the cam sprocket) do the valves make their closest approach to piston #1? I'm checking the valve clearance with a dial indicator.
Closing in on the end of this project.. just need to get the clearances figured out. Thanks
