OK heres the info.

I blew my head gaskets and pulled the motor apart. Im putting it back together right now. I've been using the Haynes repair manual as a guide to help me along. Problem is they list the correct valve clear as 0.096 - .014 inch which is way too much, it caused my lifters to tick last year when I set it to that spec. I have a e-cam with crane energizer 1.6:1 rockers which I believe are pedestal mount. Any help would be appreciated cuz I miss driving my car.
