Default Piston to valve clearance

How much do I need?

Looks like I need to mill the heads.

This is what I got.

Hand ported 5.3 Heads with LS6 sodium filled valves (flowed 291 int and 226 ext) These have not been milled at all.

6.0 Liter stock short block. I think it is the LQ4. It has dished pistons. Again the sort block is stock.

GM metal 6.0 liter gaskets.

Cam - 237/242 .603/.609 113LSA

If the heads have not been milled at all there should be no clearance issues with the 2.00 valves.
