Default Degreeing cam issue with Crower3(63403) cams and Mugen .47 two layer head gasket.

First off...here's the basic info on my setup...

-Stock B18C5 bottom end.
-Mugen .47 two layer headgasket.
-Supertech flatfaced valves.
-Supertech springs/retainers.
-Brian Crower stage 3 cams(63403)
-Specs on the cams...

Adv. Dur. - Dur @ .050 - Lift (in) - Lift (mm)

310°/308° - 260°/254° - .496"/.496" - 12.60/12.60
256°/256° - 220°/220° - .443"/.443" - 11.25/11.25
256°/256° - 220°/220° - .428"/.428" - 10.88/10.88

-The cam gears are at zero right now which won't make any power and Morgan at Synapse if afraid to degree these because he's worried about interference. The motor was run by previous owner for 4000miles, nothing has changed to the motor itself except he ran it on ITB's and Toda cam gears. He sold the camgears before I bought the motor so we have no idea what he had the cams degree'd at.

-I'm asking anyone with a similar set up or anyone with enough knowledge to point Morgan and I in the right direction on where these cams can safely be set at to make power without destroying itself. Thank you very much - Jeremiah.

Check lift at TDC.

1. Lock VTEC
2. Set Cyl. #1 to TDC on the exhaust stroke.
3. Don't exceed 0.190/0.165 in/ex valve lift.

Thanks for the info...but the motor is already assembled and was run before from previous owner for a few thousand miles. The motor was clay'd by the builder and all that good jazz. I just don't know what he had the cams degree'd to when the previous owner ran it.
