One last point (since what I have proposed has caused me monetary loss).
Shaving the head sixty thousandths and dropping in a VX cam effectively makes the engine interference.
You have been made privy. Now, go have fun (and make sure your tensioner is new AND tight)
Another TB myth long ago shown by simple numbers to be untrue..Chamer is more than 13mm deep, gasket anythere from 1 to 1,2mm deep.
Valve would have to be open more than 14mm --shaved 1.5 it would be valve opened at /near TDC more than 12mm..
And with inline valves--inline with bore, all I have ever seen is you push the valve closed and ONCE--on a different engine, revved way past 7600...contact resulted in a bent pushrofd and no other damage..
Anybody who knows anything about when valves begin to lift can see even with radical cams the lift at TDC might be 2,5 to 3,5mm max--a LONG way to go..
How can valve hit pistons 8-10-11mm away?
Any other things the "truthiness" of which you'd like to discuss?
