Default Is it possible to have a 48 cc LT1 head?

I bought a set of heads that were ported by MTI, and then worked over a little more by another shop before I got them. The heads were probably milled at least 3 times. I had my machinist mill them for straightness and cc them before I put them on my motor. He said that they cc'd 48. Is this possible?

Matt my MTI LT1 heads were down to 51CC and the guy redoing them wanted to take them down even more. BTW we got mine on the bench, 243CFM at .500 and flat line after that. So if you ever wondered what that heads flowed back in the mid 90s when the first h/c cars came out, thats it. Your maybe a lot more recent than mine and flow a lot better, my heads were done circa 1996.
