Default MS3 with 853s 2.02"/1.57 milled .006" ?

A guy is looking at some heads I have for sale. Anybody know if a MS3 will clear on a stock 99 shortblock with 853s with 2.02"/1.57" valves and milled .006" ? How close will it be, or will it hit? MS3 specs 237/242 .603"/ .609" 113+0 LSA

Thanks guys

what gaskets did you use? i have an ms3 in an 04gto with .053 gaskets and measured .095/.115 which is a long way from what you measured. The .006 mill isnt anything aka .088/.109 which is nominal. The heads also have 2.055/1.6 valves. Im a long way from kissing anything.
