Which heads do you have? To achieve 10.8:1 on LS1 heads you will have had to remove ~0.035". No one could positively say you won't have any P/V clearance issues. You will have to check the clearance once the cam is in.

I think it'll be too close. That 110 will make it too tight IMO

I had to cut .020 off my pistons for a 232/232 112 with .040 cut off my heads
