Default ms4/patriot stage 2 heads?

ok i want to get the ms4 cam but right now i have patriot stage 2 heads will i need to flycut my pistons? And would this be a good combo to run or should i sell those heads and buy the prc 2.5 heads.

Stock size valves? I vote keep the heads you got. If you had the stock size valves and the heads un-milled with the stock thickness gasket then it would be real close as to whether or not you'd have to flycut. But I would think it would clear. There should be some results in the dyno section with this combo, I know Ive seen more then a couple on here running that setup.

If it's the stage 2, that implies that you have the bigger valves. If that's the case you WILL have to flycut. I have partiot stage 2 heads and I'm right within spec with a tr224. I also have a thinner gasket. Definitely plan on flycutting!
