You mean PTV clearance.
No one should answer this and no one should even be asking.
This is not something you guess at, you HAVE TO CHECK IT!

I had an engine wasted because of a broken intake valve head.
Trust me, it's not worth guessing at it.

If they hit or you don't have the clearance get the tools. If it all looks good don't get the tools.

What LSA is the cam on?
If 112/113 or 114 it will clear as long as you have stock valves.

But the guys are right, you SHOULD measure.
