Default I need some assurance before i order

I am getting ready to place and order for the Patriot 243's unmilled with the stock valves, and a TR T-rak cam but is there anyone here that knows if this setup will work with NO p2v clearance issues? Also what head gasket should I purchase with it?

Thanks, Matt

I am pretty sure on a stock casting unmilled head that it will work fine...guys generally have to flycut when milling is involved, or larger valves are used on certain set ups..
Ask the vendor, thats always the safest bet!

i imagine that Gunnar will tell you that there probably will not be any P2V issues, but to check during your installation anyway.

it would be nice if you could use some thinner gaskets without any ptv problems.

You might have room to have a cleanup mill done as well. .005 if you had to in the future.
