Default installed civic type r pistons in b18b motor

well on saturday i instlled a set of CTR pistons into my ls, it went by preaty smoothly. I ran the car and it runs way better than before. I have a quick question, I plan on puting crower stage 2 street/strip cams. Now my question is would there be a chance of valves hiting the pistons with those cams?

This are some pics of the install.
