Make sure you double check your piston to valve clearance

Its not the valve covers that you should worry bout. Brandon put an f-cam in his, and a b-cam with 1.7s is a bit less than an f-cam so dont trip. It will work. Plus your running stock heads, your pistons are notched for you valves.

B cam with 1.7s is a F cam, spec wise. It will work, but in NA form, you won't gain much. If you want the lope, you'll definitely have it. You'll need a timing cover set and intake set for the gaskets.

Sounds like it did, or was one of the following: floated the valves, was installed advanced, was a aftermarket cylinder head, or your stock heads/block were near zero-deck.
The combo should work with GT40s and a stock block. If it were me, I'd want the drivability and noticable power...and run a set of 165's and a stock HO cam. If you've got the cam and just want the lump, go for it. Check and doublecheck everything...

I do know that If you get taller valve cover you will need a spacer for the manifold because the valve covers are too tall...

J/k...folks have gotta have a budget PRIOR to starting anything. I've seen it far too often that hopes and dreams come way before reality and paychecks.

That was with an aftermarket head and it was the exhaust valve that did not have enough clearance casey.
