Why not try your local *IH/Navistar dealer* they built the engine........ Remember boring out is forbidden unless you intend to sleeve it after.......... also do not mill the heads there is no spare metal........
Per AERA specs:
Stem to guide clearance (intake & exhaust): .0013" - .0055"
Valve height (measured from top of valve to "deck" height)
Intake: .042" - .054" Exhaust: .051" - .063"
Minimum head thickness (from "deck" to valve cover surface): 4.7950"

Navistar is about 1/2 the price Ford will give you.
