I'm on a head clearence of 0.3mm, that means 1 x 0.1mm shim. I measure the head clearence with solder. I also tried 0.4mm head clearence, but the result was the same.

I must say, Ed, I've never seen an engine with this much low end power - I'm going to have to work on my clutch a bit to better transfer the power.
I crashed into the fence at the edge of the circuit once, as the car simply accelerated so quickly out of a corner, I just wan't ready for it
Hi Mark. Try 0.3 mm shimming ( not head clearance-shimming).
Use 7 TF, they are working really good too. I just use O'D because I tested for durability and found they are most trustable.
