Default Piston to valve clearance with 60cc LS6 heads and crane 228/232?

My buddy just bought some LS6 heads that were milled down to get the combustion chambers down to 60cc. He is going with a Crane 228/232 112 lsa, .600/.600 lift and a gasket thickness of .051. Will he be fine on his piston to valve clearance with this setup? The block is still the stock deck height. Thanks!
