Thanks for your reply, Rhys. If you have the energy, maybe you can answer two more questions:

- What is the "A" cam's powerband?

- I calculate that, with pistons at TDC, my piston-to-valve clearance is about .472". The K cam has .471" lift int/exh. (I have been running it, advanced 4 degrees, for 20 k./kms without problems). I am assuming, from those calculations, that I cannot mill the head .050, while retaining the K.

Am I assuming right or am I missing something?

In any case, thanks again for your input. It is always very much appreciated!
