Re: easy way to figure cam lift on sbc in truck? worried changing heads

if the engine was on a stand you could see inside the spark plug hole and get a good look but in the truck its gonna be hard. Has this truck ever ran the way it should? Theres the possibility compression is way too high for iron heads and its pinging constantly. theres also the chance the cam is wiping out or has wiped a lobe or two. Just soo much stuff it could be. Its really hard to guess at it on here.
