Duration is what normally causes P to V issues not lift. Also the amount of advance can effect P to V.

Hey mike, what's up? I have the XE-R 228/236 .588/.602 112 and it fits with my MTI stage 2 heads milled .030. I didn't feel comfortable going larger than that without checking P to V.

Holy **** thats a big cam for .030 off

As said above, max lift isn't always the determining factor of PV. Duration, LSA, and ICL are more important figures to consider.....ICL especially
