Hi all. Just about to start putting the Guzzi engine back together, but I can't find a figure for the stack height for the valve springs. Everything I can find helpfully says "put the correct number of shims under the springs", which isn't so helpful.
Any help much appreciated! Barry |

My manual says the outer springs should be 35.7-36.0mm high with the valve closed.
