Was just reading a post, "nova head clearance" and it crossed my mind that maybe my motor is not set up right. How do I check the head clearance and what should it be? I bought this motor used and don't know much about it. It did come with some head shims but I have no idea how many should be in it. I ask this question because I am having troubles turning it over with my starter... I do think my starter just ain't got enough "ass" to it, but am wondering if too much compression might be part of the problem too. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The motor is a ops .80 with a red head.
