I have never checked that clearance before on a stock engine because....it's a stock engine. I simply make sure that I have at least .100" clearance when I change a cam or valve size.

Quote from this website:

"Minimum clearances between the valve and piston should be 0.080" on the intake valve, and 0.100" on the exhaust valve. If you run aluminum rods, the clearances should be even greater".
