I am in the process of rebuilding a '56 235. I have a 261 solid lifter cam that I'm installing. My question is do I adjust the lifters the standard .006 intake and .013 exhaust, or do I adjust them the heavy duty .010 intake and .020 exhaust? TIA \:\)

Dear Tim;

Go with the 261" specs for that year.

Good luck, John M....
