That sounds about right, but in all honesty most anything over .500" lift needs to be checked for clearance anyways as a safety. I can tell you that anything over an F cam type specs most certainly will need flycutting - when in doubt - check manually - what may be ok on one engine may be different than on yours, since wear and tear will change your effective real lift.
