If I have a pair of heads where the valve springs/valve combo has a max lift of .700, the solid roller cam has .715 lift, and valve lash is set at .025, is it possible that it will work, or does it not work like that?
.715
- .025
.690
.690 actual lift with a valvetrain combo rated for a max of .700
I realize that it would need to be checked during engine assembly to make sure that it is all working correctly, I'm just wondering if the math of it works like that.
Is there a relative easy fix if the valve train doesn't work right due to slightly too much lift, or are you supposed to replace springs and valves? (valve spring pocket machining? re-grind cam for lower lift? <-- how much lower lift?)
Thanks again!
