Default ptv clearance?

how do i know what heads will give me adequate clearance w/o flycutting? is there a measurement for it or just slap it on and try it out? im trying to get my car to 11.1 or a bit higher compression on a t2 cam and it seems as though ill have to mill to aceice that.

I'd suggest first narrowing down what heads you want/can afford and then looking around to see what people are getting away with in terms of milling, gasket size, valve size, and cam duration. If you plan on getting 243 castings, I can help.

T2 as in Torquer 2?
232/234 ?

Then 243 unmilled Stage 2.5 (2.04/1.57), stock gasket will require the Tv2 on a 113+0.
Those are 64 cc.

Other option is PRC stage 1 (stock valves), stock gasket, unmilled with the 112. Those are also 64 cc

For 11.0:1 you'll have to flycut

yes the torquer 2. i guess i didnt read as much as i had thought when i bought this cam. the cam is on a 112+0. so the 243's seem to be out the window. so now im going to have to look into a pricey set up such as an et, trick flow, or dart head i guess.

243 stock unmilled heads with stock sized valves: With the Tv2 on 113 can you use a .040 gasket? .045?

.045 should fit, but better measure as piston deck height varies in motor to motor.
