Actually, it'll cost me $240 to use the 1.6's that I just received from Summit. I had the 1.7's for my old 268 H (218/218 @ .050). They gave .485 lift with that old cam. I am thinking that I should use the 1.6's anyway and just try to sell the 1.7 TrickFlow RR's. Even with my TFTW pocket ported heads, I'm thinking that the .509/.512 lift will be enough for my purposes and might save some valve train wear and tear in the future. Thanks for the responses.
