2.02" Valve Clearance Question

I'm installing a pair of Edelbrock heads with 2.02" intakes on my '86 along with a roller cam with .510" lift. Will there be any problem with piston-to- valve clearance with the larger intakes on these heads?

How much lift can you get away with with stock pistons?

Thanks

Shouldn't be any issues. I'm running .560" lift with 2.02" valves and have the same pistons as you (assuming yours are stock).

Shouldn't be an issue with intake valve as the piston is down when it's full open.
