Default p29 pistons in a z6

Im planning on putting p29 88-89 integra pistons into my 1995 z6 motor is there any problems with piston to valve clearance??? will use oem head gasket and do a normal mill job before reinstalling the head to block. Does this set up cuase the pistons to hit the valves or and other problems and searched and found differant answers. But nothing straight forward.


Thanks,
Donald
