I was told and have used 0.003 inch between the pad and rotor on the rear. To my knowledge there is no adjustment on the front.

Seem to recall .004" clearance between pads and rotors on the rear. Not sure about the fronts, you'll have to ask an expert.

Try this, I have the article printed up and this is the site, www.ferrariforum.net/tech/view.php?id=13.
You can also try, the 914 caliper rebuild article which, as I understand, has a lot in common with F*calipers, www.pelicanparts.com/techarticles/914_caliper_rebuild.htm.
I know I will be doing mine some day and I know I'll never find the thread. I am making a binder of all of the how to DIY articles for future reference. I keep it in the shop for quick reference It's paying off already.
Hope this helps, DJ

I, too, would be interested in any info on this... Installing rebuilt calipers in a few days.

Any advise would be appreciated. I just rebuilt my calipers and had my rotors ground and plated, how far should I turn in each side of the adjusting screws on the pads? Thanks so much, Jerry.
