i got this cam for my 408 im building, but i want to see what it will do in my LQ4 for the time being, but i'm concerned with valve clearance. although i have stock dished pistons, this cam has a lot more lift than a TREX cam... although less duration and a wider split. my heads are stock 317s.

before you criticize my choice of cam for 9.5:1 compression and stock heads, i know this already. im just looking for input on clearance.

any thoughts?

No matter what ANYONE says you have to check for yourself!!!! They wont send you a check if they are wrong when your engine dies.....

The LQ4 has a dish and piston notches... for a 2.00" valve, not a 2.160!!!

Amen
I am sure that any one that tells you "yeah" will be more than glad to reach in their pockets for you if they're wrong.

yea all im running is the TR224 right now. ill probablly hold off and just wait for the new engine with valve reliefs. no sense in blowing up this engine when it already makes retarded power and gets over 25mpg on the highway.

The internet can't check PTV clearance for you.
