If I recall correctly it's 3-5 thou but I don't have a manual to hand. I'm sure somebody else will chime in :-)

3 thou is factory, but the value goes up to 6 or so if the aim is lots of high revs.

I aim for .003-.004". Clearance will increase soon enough. The C washer wears flats on it, as it is only soft.
