The only way to know your p to v clearance is to measure it; someone else's experience isn't indicative of what's gonna happen with your engine. And no, spinning it by hand without it 'locking up' ABSOLUTELY does not tell you anything about whether you have sufficient clearance.
Check the link for more info on the topic. And you really should degree the cam if you want to assure it's installed at the proper timing. The components that control timing frequently have errors built in during manufacture - not uncommon that a dot to dot install results in cam timing being as much as 4 degrees off. Good luck with the install.
