you probably will have some piston to deck height issues. especially with aftermarket cams, and valvetrain.


only thing i can tell you with the information given, is clay the motor. and run a thicker HG.


goodluck

Yeah and I was told when ordering my cams that you need quite a bit of compression to draw max power out of them. More than the 12.5:1 I'm running
