Default Dizzy end play

I've researched end play and get alot of different numbers. Bottom line is mine appeares to be 0.075 if I figured right on a tact drive dizzy is that number ok? Also if it is excessive will it effect the tach performance?
Thanks for your help.

End play should be .005 - .007 for cast iron housing and .010 - .015 for aluminum housing.

.075 is pretty typical for a factory dist., thats pretty much what I have seen them at. Couldn't hurt to shim it to the specs Jbster mentioned but if you dont its not that big of a deal.
