Default Please Help: Head/valve Clearance Advice

I want to go with the TSP 2.5 ls6 heads and the MS4 cam without fly cutting my pistons, in order to compensate for the larger valves, I am reading that you have to fly cut the pistons? So, my question is.... I want to make max rwhp and I don't want to cut corners on the valve size or compression, and I also want to deck the heads either 0.020 or maybe even 0.030 if I sink the valves 0.020 0r 0.030, by doing this will I have to change the push rod length, or machine the tip of the valve how can I maintain the full lift of the cam, big valves and still run decked heads w/o fly cutting the pistons. Is this possible? I have e-mailed TSP with no response yet, they may think I am crazy......... I know a **** load about motors, but I am stumped on the geometry of this set up? Please help..

yes if you sink the valves you will have to change your pushrod length.but that will also affect the flow of your heads.the best way is to flycut.
