Default Milled .030 - Will there be a P/V Issue with this cam ???

I'm going with a 224/224 563".563" on a 114 (Thunder Cam).
Thunder doesn't email me back so I'm hoping you guys can answer this question. Also what size push rods should I get - 7.350 or 7.400. I have Absolute Speed 1x heads milled approximately .030.

Thanks in advance

No, you won't have any clearance problems. You will also need the 7.35" pushrods.

why does he need the 7.35 pushrods? i have a T1 with .558 lift and ls1 heads milled .030". i'm pretty sure i still have 7.4 hardened pushrods.

he should not need shorter pushrods. The TR Cams (like most aftermarkets) have a 0.030" smaller base cyrcle. The 0.030" mill will cancle out the difference.

Yeah, he will have no problems with P/V clearence and he can still use 7.4 rods.
