Default fly-cut?

What are the chances I'm going to have to fly-cut when using AFR 225s that are shaved 18 thousandths and a cometic .43 gasket with a 224-231 .577-.588 lift cam?

Slim chance I would think. But I would ask one of the big boys about it.

Youre valves are gonna be almost .030 closer. Its probably going to be tight. Check and be sure about it.

With the duration numbers on that cam, I would say you are probably safe.

I assume the 225's use bigger valves than stock though, so it pays to physically check it rather than take someone's word for it.
