Sorry Rick, I have to apologise for saying that the valve clearances for the D cam are 20-22 thou. That is wrong and I was getting it mixed with an earlier correction I made re the C cam. D cam as fitted to the ES as standard has clearances specified as 16-18 thou, warm or cold. Even that is more than the 14 thou on your plate. I can't see why VTC would want to regrind a cam when the standard D cam has always been readily available and not expensive compared to aftermarket offerings. If VTC are still around, maybe have a chat with them.
