You can run .410 lift cams with stock shim set-up. It's recommended not to go to .435 lift so not sure about .420-.425 lift cams. Lots of guys use the .410 with a 1075 motor.

1980 LTD (changed over the years), 1979 LTD (being rebuilt), 1977 KZ turbo and various KZ's in various states of build. KLX110

I'm running 1105's with 410's.
I've been in the red quite a few times with no problems.
