The only way to know for sure is to clay the block.dont quote me but i think you might have a clearance issue.

Stage 1's you will be fine. You will also need to check valve to valve clearance with those cams (stage 2) and oversized valves.

ugh....one mis-shift and BOOM!

Honesty, I wouldn't go w/ the Sk2 stg 2, stick w/ Pro 1s with zero setting and download the map for it on Chrome.
