Piston to Valve Clearance question

Will the Motorsports F-303 cam work with my stock pistons etc and Trick Flow heads? I dont wanna order everything and find out I have clearance problems. thanks

You won't have any clearance problem with 1.6's. The twisted wedge heads have recessed valves, so it actually gives you more clearance. I speak from experience
