They should be set to the OEM specs as written in the OEM service manual.

.003" is the factory spec. right in that range, 3 to 5 thou.

use google, and type in... "ring and pinion lash setup"

youll get some good stuff, from richmond gear and drivetrain.com

check them out, gives you an idea of whats entailed. good luck. dave

There is a lot of info there on setting up gears. Spitfire s is a good guy to talk to.
