Default What heads with TSP MS3 Cam?

What heads if any will work with the MS3 cam without flycutting the pistons? I'm considering some heads later on down the road. Let me know if there is anything out there that will work. Thanks

A little more expensive than most but the AFR's 205's will clear without flycutting and you can run a .040" Cometic MLS gasket also. I've installed and checked clearance on this setup already.

We're also working on a smaller valved PRC head to test out with the MS3 camshaft and should have some clearance numbers in about 2-3 weeks. Hopefully we'll have enough clearance as there are a few ppl with the MS3 that are ready for heads now.

I am going to be running a set of 5.7 heads with a stage III port/polish and keep the stock sized valves. I should have it all together by next week. I'll post some numbers as soon as I get them. Kaley

you could use the gmpp cnc'd ls6 heads as they still have stock sized valves and they flow really well.
