Default tfs 215 cc milled t0 59cc ptv clearance

I just bought some tfs 215's milled to 59cc and am running the vrx4 cam. Are any of you guys out there running a similar combo? what was your ptv. I asked tea and they said I would be fine, but I just want to double check and I will triple check when my pr length checker comes in. Thanks for your input.

Measure it. You'll be tight, but it'll probably fit. The TFS heads have stock valve drop at 64cc, so if you can mill the stock heads .030" with that cam, you can mill the TFS heads .030"...

Thanks, I plan on measuring but just in case I measure wrong I wanted to know what someone that knew more about this than me thought.

Btw that's a lot of compression for that cam. I think a mill to 61cc would be better.

Not being a smart ***, but how would too much compression affect that cam? Its a little too late since I already have it. Can you please explain how 61cc would be better than 59cc with that cam? thanks.

Make sure your static cr is where you want it and try and get your dynamic cr close to 8.5 if you can. If you can't get dcr close to that then it's ok since you already bought your parts!

What head gasket thickness are you running?
