And yes. Hank piston being milled where the chamber opens was exactly what I was talking about. That way it doesn't mess.with quench.

By ending up with .015" quench, that is all you need to do to get your compression where it needs to be.

I'm afraid I don't understand what you were trying to say. 0.015" is well under the recommended range you mentioned.



No, .015" deck on the quench sides + your gasket thickness will be your piston to head clearance(.040"-.060" recommended).
