I haven't heard of any problems so far, but if i were you I would still go ahead and clay the clearances just to be safe.

i think it should be ok, since you have the valvesprings it should be strong enough to lift the valve back up, but it will be close to hitting when the valves drop....it really should be a problem considering the all motor gurus run like 13+ CR and wild cams....thats my 2 cents.. check out the NA forum at clubsi. sam is a big help

moderators, please dont give me the boot for recomending another site
