What are the valve sizes on the 205's? A lot of people (like me) are running the MS3 with CNC heads without flycutting, but I think most of us are running stock sized valves. TSP would probably be the ones to talk to.

You won't need to flycut if the heads arent milled

Milled to proper DCR
That will require flycutting, but then you can optimize quench, SCR and DCR for maximum cam output.
