Valve adjustment
I just broke in the cam on chevy 454 solid lifter lunati cam.
The question... I don't know what specific cam I have as I just moved and lost the cam ticket. Seems like the valves may be a little tight? I checked clearance before start up and it was around .030 thousandths ??? The engine has no lifter / valve train noise but after 5 to 10 seconds stalls out . No vacuem leaks, carbs is close enough to idle? Does anybody have a suggestion on what to adjust these valves at I believe the lift was around .550 No idea what the duration is?
TIA Kevin

do you remember what cam you bought like the part number cause you can go on line and probably find out what it has to be set at.
