gday mate, there is only 15,000th of an inch taken of the head, it won't even be noticable on the cam tensioner, but have the cylinders been machined also, if they have, then the piston is going to rise higher in the bore, and so if you get the cams degreed wrong, they may, touch the top of the piston, regards
