well if skunk2 springs are 2 inch drop all around, then you'll be fine no problem. i also had a fatter tire set up than you do right now, so i'm 100% sure you'll be fine

best way to clean and dry AEM v2 intake cone?

Tap to remove dust and dirt. Spray with water. Dry. Maybe use hair dryer? Re-install?

Here's a fun one;
picking up used K24A1 cams for use as replacements for my galled-ass K20A3 cams. (Same cams, different name, so they fit, not to worry! :D)
Question is, do the valve lash specs change? I mean, they should be the same, right? It's like putting some A3 cams in there, so no change to specs...right? :shrug:

I dont know if a hair dryer will affect it. Try it let us know. I dont have a V2 either, I have the AEM CAI, I just tap it so it removes the dust then I just put it in a 2 gallon bucket of HOT water and I twist it Vigorously. Then I let it air Dry. Should be good after that.

Valve lash should be identical, I'm also kind of surprised that the cams are the exact same

If you're doing something that would require you to remove the IM, I'd throw a hondata gasket on there. I'm not sure I'd go through the trouble of taking it all apart just to put the gasket in there though, I'd spend the money/time elsewhere.
