Valve train questions
Wondering is anyone might know what the stock valve to piston clearance is on 460s. I am using a stock crank and rods, new pistons have
Flat top with 2 valve reliefs
For stock stroke crank
1.752" compr. distance
Deck clearance .040
For press fit rods
Skirt clearance .0015
Looking for max cam lift I can use safely, anyone happen to know?
Thanks460_Fan

Depends on the cylinder heads used. The D3VE head combustin chambers are about .100" deeper in the block, and so you'vd have more valve-to-piston clearance...givent he same cam.
Also, it;s hard to recommend a max lift camshaft when we don't know the rest about your build...the valve springs, the rockers, the valve head diameter, etc.
