Pauter's rockers are 1.48 ratio which means if the cam has 0.450 inch lift with stock 1.1 ratio rockers, it will go up to 0.598 inch with 1.48 ratio rockers. The duration will also change and in all probability the valves will hit the pistons! The idea is to use a cam with a lower lift and easy ramp up, type 1 lifters for lightness, steel push rods, dual springs with titanium retainers and the engine can rev pretty easily. Mine does, but I tend to run it hard enough to break the valves off! I think that was due to setting valve clearances cold and the cam manufacturer said to set them hot, so now we do the adjustment hot. Hey Dave, are you going to Dunkle's this weekend? Good luck.
