I think what he was saying is that the 2.08 valves on a standard bore ls1 might contact the cylinder wall because it was made for a 4.0 bore not a 3.9
why not go to PRC ls6 head with the ms3 so it all comes from the same manufacturer and they can counter sink the valves for clearance in apps with thir cams...
MS3 is a big cam, I wouldn't strap that thing in without checking piston to valve or flycutting.
