Default crower stage 3 cams?

okay, so on the high lift cams, would i need to do anything other than springs/retainers in order to use the stage 3?

it means piston to valve issues....your valves will come down too low in the cylinder because of the higher lift, and the piston will hit the valve. it causes big problems.....

oh yeah, i plan to get it dyno tuned for sure, lol.
im thinking with a 4500 dollar loan, i could get it all done, stg2 heads, crower steel spring and retainer kit, and the stage 3 cam + dyno and tune. should come close to like 3700ish, and with piston work, another 500?

im thinking i should get close to 320whp, and hopefuly i can have them set the rev limiter to like 6500 or 7k
