Only if you step up to a high lift camshaft.

Max valve lift has NOTHING to do with piston to valve clearance

the TW heads move the valves around so you can put them on a stock block

Depends on what cam you use. Most mild cams work fine with Twisted Wedge heads but always check valve to piston clearance.

Valve timing events place the the valves in the way of the pistons.
