hello, i put L16 valve in my h10 head 38\33. I've checked the inlet valve to cylinder wall clearance and its good. the exhaust needs opening though(about 1.5 mm wider).

now i also have a .423" lift cam i was trying to figure out if this could clear with stock dish .040" over pistons, to do so i need to find out what the stock piston to valve clearance is, dose anybody know? also how far dose the exhaust valve protrude into the block deck so i know what depth to cut out of the stock valve reliefs?

looking at the slot in the cap and rod for the piston it seems like they will never line up i the picture the cap is flipped over. if you image it being flipped over to put it on the slot will be on the same side side but they will not line up.
