Well how is it running?
Lumpy? Lack of power? Not responsive?

POST 1 FUCKING TOPIC....
This is the 3rd one now 
These cams are (in my opipnion) way too 'lumpy' for standard valve gear and most def need pocketed pistons.
see post in GC - http://corsasport.co.uk/board/viewthread.php?tid=570962 - yes your other posts....

surely you would need carbs or throttel bodies to run with these cams and bigger injectors. you say you have skimmed the head alot? the valves are mosts probly touching the pistons slightly

Is it possible that when turning over by hand the valves are JUST clearing the pistons, but when the engine's spinning 500x faster than you can do by hand the extra 'momentum' is throwing the valves that tiny bit further out so that they're very faintly touching the pistons?

Or even when the engine has heated up, components expand...
