Where you see a faint arc on the top of the piston from minor contact with the valve. It's not uncommon.

Thats what I thought it was just making sure we are on the same page of the definition of it. It should possibly only eyelash if i miss a shift or just naturally will eyelash regardless of driving? Is it bad if it eyelashes? Especially if its not uncommon for someone to do that? I know its not good to have any interference but if its common for people to eyelash.....?

So we got votes to run it and some that sound iffy about it.... hmmm i really do not want to flycut but i really do not want issues down the road...dont want to be 3 hours from home and then BOOM. If the probability of issues with running the ptv at .065 on intake is quite small then im ok with that but if i have a good chance there will be issues then im going to have to bite it and fly cut and im determining these off everyones Opinions and experience????

I'd run it and not be worried. IMO, .065 on intake is ok. There hasn't been anyone yet that said don't do it, I blew my motor! Most all the time on this site, you'll see the negative comments. None yet.. Run it.

If it were me, I'd run it all day long.
