4.2 ÷ 0.14 = 30A, so you SHOULD be fine.
This is just an estimate, and I can't guarantee that the 40T you have us genuine, or any of your safety protocols.
If you're going to be using a mech, you should probably figure out how to do these calculations yourself.

Thanks for the reply , I did calculate 30 , but just wanted clarifying.
I just ordered the Samsung 30t as it is 35 amp rated so I have a bit of saftey room.
Just my worries is the charge may not last as long as the 40t.
Cheers

As I understand it, the 30T will have less voltage sag than the 40T. The 30T will hit harder at first, but the 49T will be a flatter curve as the cell drains.

Also, keep in mind that this sag will decrease the delivered voltage. Calculating at 4.2v is a way of building in a safe zone, as the supplied voltage, especially under a load of 30A, will be less than resting voltage.

Something to Consider...

4.2 Volts ÷ 0.12 Ohms = 35 Amps

So if whatever you Measured the Resistance by was off by 0.02 Ohms, Now that Headroom is Gone. And even Many High End Digital Multi-Meters are going to have a hard time Resolving a +/- 0.02 Ohm Tolerance.

So if this is Going on a Mech, I would think you would want to Build to a Slightly Higher Ohms.

Ye after I bought the coils I thought I may be best building higher.
But is it lower ohm build more flavour/cloud as I'm all for that.
Currently been using mesh coils with low ohm and I think there awesome
I seen videos with people running .1 builds on it , thinking gosh there brave or what battery are they using

...

You just Don't See humungous jumps in Flavor when you do Very Small decreases in Ohms. But you Do see Large Leaps in the Amp Draw.

I think your Idea of Building a Tad Higher makes a Lot of sense when a Mech is involved.

A mesh coil is going to be a much cooler vape than a traditional coil, especially at that low of an ohm. Flavor is always subjunctive, and mesh coils tend to bring out different flavors from juices, but the airflow and other factors about the geometry of the coil play a role too.
As for clouds, mesh makes denser, thicker vapor at a given wattage, but again, will be cooler.
When comparing two traditional coils against each other, lower ohms usually means more vapor production, but you'll get more heat too.
