You need to check valve to piston clearance with the new heads and the cam you will be using. Every engine is different due to machining tolerances and other variables. Two identical engines with the same heads and cam can (and probably will) have two different measurements for valve to piston clearance.
I also wouldn't use a B303 cam. If you are going to spend the money on good heads, spend the money on a good cam.
