Do any of you guys know if there would be a valve clearance problem using a FMS E-303 cam with 1.73 roller rockers on a stock 95 mustang bottom end? I have gt-40 heads that were supposedly set up for this cam, But I am unsure of the valve issue. How can this be tested?

1.73 rockers? I think you mean 1.72. (Just being particular)

There is no problem, but it should ALWAYS be checked. I'd do the "ghetto" way of just using putty on the pistons and making sure no holes are put in it. It's not the most scientific, but it shouldn't even be close. However, like I said before, there are too many variables to consider and risks to take if PTV is not checked.

I'd be embarrassed to admit I had an E-camunless it was drawing in the women But if I had one, I'd give it to you for free, just so I never had to admit it again

I haven't done much ball bustin lately. Nothing personal. I've just never been a fan of any of the alphabet cams.
