In all honesty, you should check out JWL's book called Flathead Facts and the Tilden Technologies website.

My two cents. Mike
The references are good, but not sure I totally understand the comments. The clearance above the valves is mostly a fixed amount without modifications. So the available lift with proper clearance is likewise fixed. Don't see how usage or gearing or anything else has much of anything to do with it.
