I am in the middle of rebuilding, lightly modifying my (what will be) 1641. I am trying to find out, before assembly, if the 110 profile cam, mixed with 1.25 ratio rockers will clearthe pistons before i assemble. Obviously, i can check for clearance, but would rather know prior. If anyone can let me know, i would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

yes, you will have plenty of clearance.

What heads and what carbs are you using in your 1641?
