Total lift has almost nothing to do with Piston to Valve clearance. At max lift, the piston is half way down the bore, and traveling away from the valve. The valve events(opening and closing events of the lobe) have more of impact than total lift. For most inline valve placement heads, anything over a 1.90 intake valve, you'll probably have to fly cut the pistons to accommodate the larger valve size. Depending on how the cam is setup. That's the problem with stock pistons, as it will sometimes limit the cam selection. Cam selecting really should be left to the pros. Specially when using a large valve like a 2.02 intake valve. Regardless, your gonna have to physically your self check the Piston To Valve clearance. No matter what cam you choose. Majority of guys on any forum, aren't qualified to give accurate cam suggestions.
