Got some new springs. These were from Lowe’s for $5 and are very light. They don’t push in the lifter spring at all.
Did a practice run just to see. I think 6.750” might be the number. This was 0.065” wide. Spec is 0.080” according to the TFS instructions. I just need to read up on how to factor in lifter preload
Will set it up this weekend for real, and get some pushrods in order. I need to steal the kids playdough and check PTV. I checked a few times just by depressing the valve while I spin the crank and it felt like there was plenty of space. Still...gotta check
