I adjusted my valves tonight. I have a hotcam 1 and the ticking was getting loud. I adjusted intake .005 and the exhaust .006
I had to tight them quiet a bit and i adjusted them to where the feeler gauge was draging pretty good. Now that everything is adjusted properly will anything else need to be adjusted? Like idle or anything?

you may need to. you cant tell until you crank it up though.
if you do need to adjust the idle , then do it after you have warmed the engine up, if you do it while its still cold then it will start to idle too high once it has gotten warmed up.
