I'm putting together a 1914, cut the cyls .080 to get the deck right (.060) I have a engle 110 cam and 043 heads w/40-35.5 valves, single springs, 1.1 rockers,stock pushrods. When I turn it over the spring retainers hit the guide tops.Should I cut the guides or is this just a matter of adjusting the rocker stands or push rod length?

The guides need trimmed, you've got lift - keep it.
