I do .006" all the way around, although spec is .004"/.006" depending on what reference you are using. I'd rather have them a couple thou out than tightening up. Read the article on valve adjustments and why they are so important at my site thebughop.org if you are so inclined (in the Maintenance section).


Pay very close attention to #3 exhaust, check it often.
