I'd like to install 1.94 and 1.60 chevrolet valves in a spare head I have. My question is what is the effective limitation on valve lift with the stock (1992 H.O) pistons?

mmm i think valve lift limitation problems would occur more with the stock springs. piston to valve clearance has more to do with the duration of a cam than it's lift.

Whats too much duration for the stock pistons and 1.94 valves? Think 224-224 would work?
