Hi! Im New..
I just installed a set of Comp Cams grind # XE274AH cams and havent even tried to start the motor yet. I was wondering if anyone here is running the same cams. I have a set of Patriot Perfomance Stage 2 Heads and the cams. It also has a Saleen Roots type blower on it. The only thing that concers me is the Piston/Valve clearance. Has anyone run into a problem here with that?
Thanks For Your Help!!

I don't think I've seen anyone post that they had the 274s on this board. There are several people with 270s though.

Oops, typo. Thats what I meant the 270's. Any clearance issues? Thanks again!

As long as your cam timing is set right you should have no PTV contact. Also beware...many people, including my friend, have broken their cam timing tensioner while installing cams and it sounds like a sewing machine. This is not uncommon. Also...why didn't you go with a blower cam if you have a blower on the car?
