318 combo

i think i'll just measure once its assembled and figure out pushrod length then. one thing I have been thinking about is the cam. I really like the Howards cam recommended earlier - 208/214 @ 50 .479/.494 lift - but I'm concerned that with 1.6 rockers the lift might be a bit high, bringing it up to .511/.527

I don't know if a) short duration and high lift might be bad for valvetrain longevity, and b) if there are any issues with running >.500 lift with stock rockers and a flat tappet cam.

Any thoughts?
