930-16 valve springs 454?

I have a 454 with large oval 215 casting heads. The heads currently have comp 911-16 single valve springs with a outside diameter of 1.524. I'm changing the cam and want to use the comp 930-16 dual valve springs with an outside diameter of 1.550. I have heard that the spring pockets may need to be enlarged, will these springs fit the stock heads without machining? Thanks.

Seats may have already been machined larger, stock Springs are 1.437" or so.
Those are only .013" larger per side but, you should measure the Seats.
