You need to set the rocker clearance to the cam card specs. My solid cam requires .025" on exhaust and .028" on intake. All cams are different, so don't take any chances. Another general rule of thumb is every 15k miles for solid lifters and 30k for solid roller. If you set them wrong, you could potentially do damage to the valvetrain.

I've always set them cold to the cam grinders specs, never have had any trouble.
