Larry, 
It is your webpage that made me make this curve to find the right valve lash. Do you agree that 0.026" is too much?

Marcel, 
The 0.026 on my website is the value that is usually recommended by BFE. I have a webpage that describes how it "should" be determined - [ http://tildentechnologies.com/Cams/Tip_Lash.html | http://tildentechnologies.com/Cams/Tip_Lash.html ] . This may give a smaller number than what is recommended. The procedure will avoid the "tuning fork" problem we discussed earlier.

Looking at the curve,.018 or a bit more, on the inlet valve, seems about right. On tildentechnologies.com .026" is recommended, but with that much valve lash, it seems that the valve is beginning to open when the cam follower is already at the beginning of the flank.

Hi Marcel - I run this cam in a lot of engines I build . 
0.018 and 0.020 normal. You can also try 16/18 .

This is tappet lift vs. crankshaft degrees (degrees before maximum valve lift) of a BFE 24 camshaft mounted in an engine. I wonder how much tappet or valve clearance (1.55 rocker ratio) one would recommend? I asked some people and searched the web : 0.020 to 0.026"/0.50 to 0.65mm is recommended.
