98 heads with lightened Z06 valves?
I have a set (actually 2 of em) of stock 98 LS1 heads that I plan to have milled .030 to raise the compression. I am also going to be using a 230/224 cam with a maximum lift of .578". This setup will be going into my rx-7 v-8 conversion and I purposely picked a cam that I can get good power on the top end as I am worried about traction on the low end. To get the rpm's up reliably I would like to lighten the valve train as much as possible. My question is, will the Z06 lightened valves work with this setup? I understand they are slightly longer and I'm not sure if they will fit well while maintaining good spring seat pressure AND not hit the piston. Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Chris
