My guess is that you would be closer than the recommended 0.100" PV clearance. I'm not sure though.

If they are our out of the box stage II 59cc heads, they will be right at factory deck height. We have not heard of cutomers with cams similar to these having any PTV issues, however ALWAYS check PTV clearance.
