Specificlly for the Trex or MS4 or 3. Stock or After market heads it does not matter.
if any other cam swaps required you to post as well.
Just curious i belive this will help me and other choose a cam for my build up.
thanks

IMO that is already tight on a street hydraulic setup. (Intake wise)

My old setup was 243 castings with a .010 mill, 2.02 intake valve, a .045 gasket and a TR224. It doesn't sound like it would be close, but I think those valves were what killed the PTVC. I was right within spec on that setup and was planning on a 230ish/234ish cam with more compression so I milled .080 to be safe.
In the end I have a 230ish/234ish 111LSA +2 cam, 11.2:1 SCR (.024 milling), a .045 gasket, and my PTVC was about 260 thousands on the intake and about 210 on the exhaust.

I've got the 5.3/MS3 combo with 2.02/1.57 valves and TSP said no flycutting was required so I didn't. They also said it would be fine on spray
