Unhappy TR 230.236 .592/.602 piston to valve problems??????????????/

has any one else had problems with this cam? I am running a set of west coast ported 241 castings with stock valves and have ZERO clearance when claying my piston. it actually cut the clay in half. the cam is in dot and i checked with checker springs.

is this normal or am i missing something? The TR tech "promised" it would fit.

check this link out it may help out on how your checking it

unless there was excessive milling and a thinner gasket it should work

have they been milled? how much? if .030+ it should clear just barely enough, but flycutting will be needed if milled that much or more i believe.
