I have a custom cam that has specs very close to the MS4 and you will be fine as long as you measure though.

If there are larger valves in the heads I do not think it will clear with out some flycutting. I would definately measure if you end up putting that setup together.

Mill em down and have your pistons flycut. Then you'll have more power without a worry.

Can you measure the valve drop? That'd give us a better idea of how much room you have to play with and eliminate most of the variables!
