(1) If you tip the valves by 1 mm make sure the valve tips still protrude above the valve retainers or the extra shim will hit on the retainers

yeahm theres plenty of meat there to remove 1mm without fouling the collets Smile

(2) Is there enough heel on the cams to remove 2 mm , If so would the base circle of the cam lobe still be larger than the cam bearing journal

yeah, 2mm is the max i can take off. ive got one of those heads where the bucket will foul the bearing journal if it comes up too much. 2mm grind take the lobe to within 0.3mm of the journal, and then theres 0.5mm from there to the edge of the bearing journal to the actual bucket (not the shim - shim clears, i think).

the actual specifics of the grind are to be fully figured out. but just sussing the general concept for now Smile

cheers
