These are not the heads you wanna use. They are ~71 cc and every .005 flat mill is a 1cc decrease. Just to get to stock 66cc, you would have to mill .025 which is acceptable but starts limiting your cam options on PTV.
If you insist on using those heads, I would mill them .040 and use a high lift LSK low duration cam with a tight LSA.
Still though, I think you should sell these to someone wanting FI application and get 243 castings.

would it be worth it to save and get some stage 1 243 or just get some stock ones? cause im on a really tight budget, thus being the reason i got the 317's in the first place.
