Default Cobra LIM porting (gasket matching)

Im currently in the process of gasket matching my cobra manifold, but on the lower part where the manifold matches up the the heads there is a TON of material that needs to be taken out to match up with the gaskets. Currently my heads are stock, and i have yet to see how bigh the port openings are on them, but on the LIM i need to take a good 1/8 inch off three sides of the port to make it match the gasket! will that be too much? thanks!

i own a 94 gt with cobra upper and lower, the previous owner had this done to the lower, he left the ports on the lower slightlysmallerthan the ports on the heads, and nothing leaks
