LS7 pistons have valve reliefs already. I don't know the lift or duration on that cam but it is highly unlikely that you will need to fly-cut LS7 pistons for valve clearance.

Plug and play! No flycutting necessary! Its a fun cam, should make 535-560 with supporting mods cam only

Whoever said that probably didn't know you were putting it in an LS7.
