Wouldn't that depend on your piston choice?

I thought the Blue car was going to Gettysburg. Sounds like you're having second thoughts. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

I'd say your springs are gonna be the limiting factor before your clearance...are they sure enough old school original springs, or stock replacements?

What is your compression, head/intake, etc...??

It depends if you want to deal with broken rocker stud bosses or not.
