Default will stage 3 ls6 heads work??

was wondering if stage 3 CNC ported ls6 heads with 2.08/1.60 valves would work fine on a stock bore ls1? the specific heads i am refering to are the PRC ones from texas speed which are listed under 05-07 corvette cylinder heads.
only reason i want these are cause for now i am oing with a huge cammed ls1 but in the near future will be moving to a bigger fully forged shortblock and i would like to buy heads once and just transfer them over.

valves that big are going to limit the size of cam you can run. Best to check w/ TSP to see if you'll still have enough PTV clearance. The 2.08's will work on a stock bore.

if you want to run that cam the tsp prc stage 1 heads perform very well. id look into the new tfs's heads and see if they would be compatible with that cam.. i dont know enough about them just that they made nice numbers in a shootout against afr's darts edelbrocks etc.

Yes, the MS4 is a choosy cam. Not many heads work with it. THere are always flycutting and milling options but it really is easier to just go with the Stage 1 PRC's, its a match made in heaven
