Even as few as we have to deal with and install for customers now, I've seen more than 5 in the past year.

If you don't have enough installed height you either machine the pockets to get the height, run a longer valve, or switch spring kits (retainers specifically).

Old thread, but still good info. patriots look pretty good to me. https://ls1tech.com/forums/generatio...t-results.html
And people used to run .651 lift cams on .650 patriots and they held up. I think with your little lift you should be FINE

I wouldn't throw their kit into the same ring as the 921's (and I'm sure many other reputable sponsors here would agree)! Pressure tests are one thing, retainer machining consistency/accuracy and spring-life are quite another!
