exhuast valve .06 - .10 mm = .002362205" - .003937008"

intake valve .16 - .20 mm = .006299213" - .007874016"

I've done your conversions, but you have transposed the specs/position....

yea i done the conversions already but thanks ryno i appreciate it. The feeler gauge i had was to big so i exchanged it for one that is the right size. to adjust my valves do i have to have it at TDC??

Yes you have to put the piston on TDC. You should remove that cam cover and make sure that the cam's timing mark is lined up. Then you can adjust away.
