Make sure you check piston to valve clearance. Should be a fun ride when done

of course i will check ptv clearance hoping i will not have to fly cut as speed inc told me it will not be necessary with stock heads which is the only reason i went this big

I had a hair milled off mine at the time and ran a 238/242 when I pulled the motor down to go bigger there were marks on the pistons where the valves just touched a few times...I got lucky and didnt do any damage

With that cam I would run a 4K stall to maximize performance.

I would run a 4k+ stall as well, and I do, with a smaller cam. but Adam has his mind set on a pi3600, it probably stalls a lil bit higher than say a ss3600 so he will be fine. little bit More wife friendly and more street friendly with the 3600

I think I'd run a 4,000 stall with it too.

Mine was a 238/242 .595/.595 112 lsa. Now I jumped up to 255/277 .624/.624 115 lsa that pulls hard as hell all the way to my 8,000 rpm fuel cut.
