Mine were cut to 59ccs, your best bet is to contact TSP their customer service is second to none. If you measure your valve drop you can get a custom cam specced out. I have those heads with a custom cam and ported fast 92 and mine laid down 463 rwhp on their dyno, on my stock short block

buddy of mine from here has those heads that were worked over and has a custom ground comp cam with a 92/92 combo and put 460 down with a stock shortblock that has 184k on it and the car runs plum wicked and sounds really nasty in a very good way i agree with raron455 customer service call is the way to go with that question

What are the specs on your cam? We can look at them and make an educated GUESS at to whether or not it will clear.

Real close to the TorquerV3, except an XER exhaust lobe instead of XFI...don't think he's going to be able to mill

TorquerV3 (231/234 .643"/.598 111LSA) we're able to mill about the 5.3's to about 60cc's without issues with piston to valve clearance on flat-top pistons!
