Ms3 + prc 2.5 5.3 = ptv? so thats what I've neem hearing... the MS3 will need flycuts or recessed valves to run under prc 2.5 5.3 heads.
this is going in a 408 with diamond racing -10cc piston.
Do I need to call Jon?

That typically applies to the factory pistons which are not flycut. If you are putting it on a build engine with piston valve notches there should be ample room, although I always recommend checking it with any new setup.

Jon,
Im putting this same combo MS3 with your PRC 2.5 heads on a LQ4 shortblock. I was told there would be no PtV issues, is this correct? Also to go another step further could I run a thinner head gasket to bump up the compression?
sorry to HiJack the thread guys

What about the MS3 and the LS6 stage 1 heads?
I was thinking about going with the prc 2.5 5.3 heads and a large cam. I was thinking the MS3 but I don't want to flycut

with that said.....would I be ok with a .04 head gaskets with the LQ4? I know that measuring is the safe way, but does TSP have any experience with this set-up (LQ4 shortblock with MS3 and PRC2.5)?
