Default safe to run skunk2 stage 1?

sup everybody,

I'm thinking about swapping out my CTR cams and picking up a set of skunk2
stage 1 cams. I'm currently running CTR pistons with a 2 layer spoon headgasket in my b17a. Does anybody know if there will be any clearance issues? This is a daily driver so I want to make sure that I won't run into any major issues with this
setup. Do you guys think the swap is worth doing? I'm looking for similar midrange power as the CTRs but with a some more up top. (running ITR valvetrain setup, 8500 rpm redline).

P.S. Couldn't find anything about this with the search

thanks!!

You will be fine, and your car will pull even better with the Skunk2 Stage 1 cams.

The Skunk2 Stage one cams have just barely more lift than the CTR. The way they make power is with the duration. I wouldnt think that you would have any problems. If you are interested i have some Stage 1 cams and cam gears for sale. IM me for details if you are interested.
