The SE heads of this era list .575 max lift. Definitely not for use out-of-the-box without work, IMHO. Here's some info:
http://www.baggersmag.com/tech/0205h...ead/index.html

PN 16952-99B: We’ve combined the proven Screamin’ EagleŽ valve train components and innovative port shapes from the EvolutionŽ 1340 cylinder heads with the Twin Cam 88Ž engine “bathtub” combustion chamber to create a cylinder head that really performs. These heads offer a bolt-on compression ratio of 9.5:1 for a Twin Cam 88Ž (1450) and 10.0:1 for a Big Bore Twin Cam (1550). Combined with forged high compression pistons, both 1450 and 1550 engine configurations would achieve a 10.5:1 ratio. Use of Screamin’ EagleŽ spark plugs P/N 32320-91 when flat-top pistons are used or P/N 32321-91 with high compression pistons is recommended. Best performance can be obtained by combining with one of HarleyŽs Screamin' EagleŽ valve spring can accommodate up to .575" valve lift camshaft kits. Heads are machined to accept Compression Release P/N 29298-02.
* Caution: Screamin’ EagleŽ Adjustable or Perfect Fit Pushrods are required for installation. Do not use high compression cast pistons with Screamin’ EagleŽ Twin Cam 88™ Performance Cylinder heads. Failure to comply may result in engine damage. For Race Application Only.
