He would be using ZE spacers on a DE, so no there would be no restriction since the square runners are larger than the rounded ones. You could port match the heads, but the IM would still be the round runners. The only thing with those spacers is that they probably block the EGR hole on the IM.

They would just cause minor tubulance, which may help the "swirl" when the gas and air mix. I would check to see if the DE oval ports are wider than the sqare ZE spacers, but I think they're the same.

Just use your ze spacers as a stencil, and port your intake runners to match them...takes less than 1 hour....
