V/P clearance ?
i was reading in another forum somewhere that if i bought Victor Jr heads, i would definatly have V/P clearance issues. is this true? if i bought dished pistons would this help the problem? i guess it would depend on the cam and rocker arm ratio wouldn't it ? if anyone has this setup let me know how it worked out for you. thanks.

What year is your car and yes, dished or having your pistons fly cut would help. The cam duration/lift would be a factor and I have an 86 with flat top pistons, so I just went with a complete rebuild, including a stroker kit, so I'm done with it.
