Valve Size Help!

Putting parts together for my new motor and I am stuck on which valves, stock or 0.5 oversized. My concern is the piston clearance. Heres the specs
ITR Head
B18C block
ITR crank and rods
CTR pistons
S2S2 cams, springs and retainers

My concern is whether the cutouts in the pistons are large enough for the oversized valves. Anyone running this setup already?

Re: Valve Size Help!

some time, some where, i read about this (when i was getting my head work done)& it was explained very well. showing flow bench results & the fact that u have to be careful with cam selection due to clearance issues. i dont have time to be searching everywhere for it though.

also alaniz, who is very reputable, did not recomend it when he did my headwork.
