Gents,
 
I have the bottom end of my engine out at the balancing shop; I also need to
order a cam for the new engine.  Unfortunately, before I stripped everything
down, I forgot to measure piston to valve clearance.  I am using 38cc heads
(10.75:1) and stock flat top pistons (the ones without the valve reliefs).
In a stock engine, how much valve lift can it safely support.
 
Thanks,
 
James Nazarian
