like kwanza said, shim clearance.
unlike a small block chevy, you cant just adjust "valve lash" on the celica.
it has a shim over bucket design, and valve clearance is adjusted with the shims.
basicly you measure the clearance between the shim and camshaft, compare that mesurement to the guide in the BGB and swap out shims accordingly. wink.gif
not quite as easy as it sounds without a good working knowalge of it, and the right tools.
