Default Do I have to flycut?

I bought some ported heads from another member on here. They are milled .0010. The valves are 2.02 and 1.57. I want to run these heads with a MS3. Do you think I need to flycut? If so how much is it?
TIA!

you could also use a thicker head gasket to make up for the milling too, like a .060 gasket for instance
