Will Large Port Vortec Heads Fit

I was looking at the Large Port Vortecs on Jegs.com JEGS High Performance - GM Performance Parts Cast Iron Large Port Vortec SBC Heads
and was wondering if they will fit on the stock TPI setup. It says that the intake mounting holes are for both the early model 6 bolt and late model 4 bolt. Does anyone have any experience with these?

They probably still have the raised intake ports, so a stock TPI base probably won't match up very well... There's not a lot of meat on a stock base to work with either, so I dunno...

With the stock TPI base , you will be cutting off some of the area
