I have some stock shaved heads (.030) and ordered a Trick Flow Stage 1 cam. I have been told that I will have a problem with piston to valve clearance. Is that true? If so, where do I find the tool you use to flycut the pistons in the block?

What is the process to check this without bending a valve or wasting a piston? Note: the block is still in the car.

I am going to wait to pull my cam until I hear some comments on here, so please help me because it's a beautiful day out there and I wanna rip my car apart

THANKS!
