Default Can I use this cam in a stock motor?

I have an LPE custom cam that has 595/595 lift. Can I use it without fly cutting my pistons. I just want to do a cam and spring swap. I have a set of Comp 941's. No other changes. Thanks.

I don't think I would use the Comp 941's with a cam with that much lift. As far as flycutting the pistons goes, those lift numbers are useless without knowing the duration numbers. Even better would be the cam lift at top dead center of the exhaust and intake lobes which would be listed on anything which has been through a cam doctor.
