Default OS Valves w/Skunk2Stage2

Wassup guys i just have a few questions to ask.

I was wondering if you can run 1mm oversized valves with skunk 2 stage cams. I did some searching and have read that skunk does NOT recommend it. Also that there would be valve to piston and valve to valve clearance issues.

Can someone shed some more light to my problem and if you CAN run OS valves with skunk 2 stage 2 cams or any stage 2 or stage 3 cam.

Thanks, John

i hear that oversized valves tend to be useless in all motor. do to valve to valve clearance with a high lift cam like the skunks they could possibly collide. Id just stick with a stardard sized ferra valve. just my 2 cent

or you can call wherever you got your ferra valves from and ask for the standard valves and return the 1mm oversized.
