Default help please.

I got a 03 LQ4 and a set of 799 heads.
My question is, has anybody ran 799 heads, milled .030 with .051 headgaskets with a torquer v2 cam on a lq4 without valve reliefs? I have a ms3 but I would rather run a smaller cam with higher compression. This will be a 2700lb Nissan 240 street car.

As long as it's a stock head with stock valves being milled down .030 it should technically clear. Though we do recommend that the cam be degreed in and PTV clearance be checked as you are on the edge of clearance there. If the valves have been changed out then all bets are off. If you haven't milled them down yet I would just mill them .025 and be safe.
