That mostly depends on the duration of the raptor cam . With large duration cams say more than 230deg , that's where You really need to clay the piston for a cpl full revolutions to see what that clearance is . You probably should clay test anything more than 220 deg duration to be safe . Also if You're cam had lift of more than .600 and duration of more than 210 which would include all cams with that much lift , that also would be a candidate for the clay test . Good luck .
