That is excessive, the way the model t valves are adjusted in the manual will leave the valves with many different clearances. I use the more modern way and actually adjust them to a clearance. .010 to .015 is good to strive for. Sounds like you need a longer valve unless it has adjustable lifters.

Re: Ruckstell linkage
Tom, I agree with both John and Jim. I also want to add the straighter that you can make it the easier it will be to shift. It will be less springy, the mid support will also help. Another thing, just preference, But I like the after market linkage that is mounted just aft of the emergency brake and...
