Default Will everything be ok?

Well here is what I will have engine wise:

LS2

ETP 225 Heads
Hellion Cam (243*-247*-112*-.629"-.629")
FAST 90 Intake
Kooks LT's
Custom 3" exhaust with bullet mufflers
P/P TB
SLP Pulley
K&N CAI


My questtion is how will that cam work with those heads? Will flycutting be required?

Sounds like it'll be sick. I too would like to know exactly how much more PTV clearance the ETP heads give.

How do I check? I have to get the parts installed right? Then you listen for a piston to hit a valve? I am a noob sorry.



Also If I had to flycut would I be better off doing it myself or having someone do it for me?

definately better off lettign someone else do the flycutting if nessassary.... but fir the power that I think you are looking to make, a forged bottom end with pistons made to clear, if nessassary might be a good idea.
