Jim Brierley states "On my reground to B spec cams I recommend .012" & .014", same as I set an original Ford B cam."

If that is a new Bill Stipe 330 "B" cam, he says to set them both at .012

All A & B intakes .010 to .013",A exhaust .015 to .017". B exhaust .020 to .022".This is for stock B cam & original valves.This info from the back of an original Ford ruler.Modern valves may require a different setting.
