340 camshaft break-in. Well.....almost

Just curious about this i checked mine scene my motor is out of the car right now. I found mine is no where close to .008 or 203mm. My feeler gauge is very old so i think 203mm is the same as .008? if the gap is to large what problem might you have? My car starts and runs.
I think you mean .203 mm = .008"....
Too large would result in misfiring. Timing cylincer-to-cylinder might be a bit more variable.
BTW, it is supposedly a no-no to use a ferrous feeler gauge for this.... I assume it can magnetize the metal bits in the reluctor gap.
