Wouldn't that depend on your piston choice?

I have SRP Pistons which have Piston to Valve clearance of about .600........Just wondering what the Max travel would be with Stock Springs........Been eating Pretzels with Mustard on them and I keep getting these wierd thought's.........So.........I need a Camshaft change in the Gold Nova.......LOL...Want something more than stock L-78 ........but ....Still need Vacuum for Power Brakes...

I thought the Blue car was going to Gettysburg. Sounds like you're having second thoughts. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif

I'd say your springs are gonna be the limiting factor before your clearance...are they sure enough old school original springs, or stock replacements?
What is your compression, head/intake, etc...??

It depends if you want to deal with broken rocker stud bosses or not.
