I replaced the B7 camshaft with the A6 Cam and I am having trouble with the Valve Lash. Its a stage 2 A6 cam; Are there any adjustments I should do to the Rocker Arms? Exospeed told me .007 Intake and .009 Exhaust, but it seems like if I adjust the valve lash I will run out of thread to tighten the lock screw. Right now since I removed the Old Cam (b7) and put in the New Cam (Stage 2 A6) I have not adjusted the Lash, its still stock and the rocker arm is really loose with the #1 cylinder at TDC.

you are adjusting only cylinder #1 right?????

You have to rotate the crank to adjust the other 3 cylinders, 180 degrees crank, in the 1-3-4-2 order.

PLEASE do not try to start the motor!

Thanks for the Reply Transzex. We got it figured out, I thought I might have gotten the wrong Camshaft but we got the valve lash taken care of and got the car running right, and timed correctly.
