If there is physical interference, you’ll bend valves/damage pistons/etc by turning it over. The thing is though, if it clears by say .010, it’ll turn by hand but could touch when it’s running because of expansion, etc.

What does that put the compression at? 11/1 would be nice!

Let me know if you need any further help checking the PTVC.

I really dont know what that raises it to. The chart starts at 58cc. Should be close to 11:1 though.

The guy thats putting my motor together most likely knows how to check the clearance.

The last guy that put the heads on totally fucked shit up and the valves were misadjusted and hit the pistons.

I just found out the rockers are 7/16 studs. I need 3/8. Fuck. $1050 shipped is a good price.

\*Call the guys that built your motor. Ask them what heads will work. Make life easy. Drink beer.

Theyre fucking retards. I dont want to bother.

I asked them about cams when I was ordering the motor and couldnt get a good straight answer about that either.

For $100 Ill just look for another set of heads. I dont want to put anything into the heads after buying them.

They did recommend a few cams but I dont know if theyre good or not.
