the other day i blew a head gasket and i figure while my heads are off i might as well cam it... im lookin at a trick flow stage on cam... the specs on the cam are Duration 275/ 279, Lift .499/ .510 and i want to put in 1.7 rockers... will this setup work with the stock e7 heads or will i have valve slapping issues?
thanks guys

You will need to replace the valve springs, retainers, and locks. As for PTV you will have to check for it.
