But as far as your piston to valve clearance I believe you have to put clay on top of your piston and assemble your whole motor then rotate is and the valves will press into the clay. Then you have to take apart your motor and measure the clay. The machine shop I go to doesn't assemble motors so this is something you'd have to ask your machine shop. If you installed your timing chain correctly I don't think you piston to valve clearance is some you have to worry about on a ka. Atleast with stock cams and pistons

Thanks. I just wanted to know as I have never seen anyone go over valve to piston clearance.
