Hi Mike,
Pitman's 'The Book of the Austin Seven and Eight' fourth edition 1953 recommends the following tappet clearances for the BIG SEVEN and EIGHT. This clearance recommendation is contained within Chapter 5 'Decarbonizing' which describes work on an engine block minus its head, manifold etc so I assume these will be cold clearances:
0.008" to 0.009"
