243's should work well, just make sure your PTV will be OK for how much you mill them. You definetly want to make sure your compression is not going to be lowered, especially with that size cam, good luck.

Is there an easy way to see what my compression is going to be by milling them .040? Like a formula or something. And how would I know about PTV before buying them?
