Re: timing and adjusting valves changes

Timing and valve adjustment have nothing to do with each other.

By adjusting your valves, you may slightly increase the time the valve is open but not enough to throw off the mixture. The only time you would ever have to compensate for mixture is if you put a different cam in.
