When i talked to BTR they told me stage 1 tea 243 heads milled .030 (which according to tea comes out to 63cc) i could run the BTR stage 4 cam which is 235/242 .621 .592 111+3.
I am surprised yet glad to hear BTR says you can mill that much and still be ok as that is the cam I'm running

I know i just wanted an idea how big i could go. I would rather have more power down low so i won't go to big on the cam.
