Help with flycutting!
I am working on a car that has GTP Stage 2 heads that are cut 0.03" with a stock bottom end. The cam that we are trying to get in is a TR230/224. The specs on that cam are 230/224 @0.050 with 0.575/0.563 lift. We installed the heads and puttied the piston, the valve went through the putty and contacted the piston. We now have the Isky flycutter tool for this weekend and I was wondering what is the most amount of piston material that can be removed, what is the margin of safety for P/V clearence, and if anybody has done this what is a good amount to start cutting (like 0.035 or 0.04).
Thanks

When you clayed, did you have checker springs in there? If you did, then you had no lifter preload accounted for, since the checker springs cant depress the lifter plunger. I could see that cam cutting it close, but actually hitting seems a bit suspicious to me.
