Default Will I need to flycut?

Decided to go with a bigger cam for the new heads? The heads are
Patriot stage2 LS6's with 59cc chambers and 2.055 /1.57 valves, The cam is TR's Trak cam 231/234 .640/.590 112 LSA, Ive searched and searched, and found only some relevant info? Anyone have any experiance with these big boy cams/ large valve small cc heads? I cant clay it until the heads come in whenever that may be, any tips or experienced answers would be great. thanks guys...

I would guess yes, but that is my uneducated opinion. You better clay your pistons to be sure.

to be safe, I would take the suggestion and clay the pistons to measure your PTV. If it's not enough, you will know how much you need to cut to be safe.
