Default Need info on heads/cam application?

Need to know if these heads are good for my application? Mods are in my sig. I plan on using a TSP 225/225 .589 112 LSA cam. Here is the description of the heads. Please help me out on this as I really have no idea and need to move on this fast in order to get an awesome deal. Thanks

[B]The heads are the 6.0L casting #317. They flow 295 at .550 lift and have Ferrea 2.02/1.55 valves with CC918 springs and Ti retainers. They have been milled and have combustion chamber volume of 63.5cc which yields a C/R of approx. 10.6:1.

295 cfm at .550 lift is good,what does it look like after that,your lift on your cam is .589,so i would check to see what it flows up to that.

Yes they would work. That is a good flow number for mid lift.

well the only problem I can see is if those heads have been milled to get the chambers down to 63.5cc's they have had about .050ish knocked off of them and with a .589 lift you are subject to piston to valve clearance problems.

I am not at the office where I can double check my numbers but it will be close. I am sure some else will chime in on this and say yea or nay on the P to V issue.

no there not. or if they are the CC isnt 63.5. if they were milled .030 it would put you at stock compresssion. the 6.0 heads have a 71.06 CC chamber to start with. if they really do have a 63.5 CC then they've been milled ~.053

yes decked/milled are referring to the same thing. i honestly wouldnt buy anything from someone who couldnt give me the exact specs. especially with heads were clearances are crusial.

Milled is reffering to the heads,
Decked is the block.
