I've got a 59 261 and after mocking it up found the pistons to be .060 below the deck. I'm just wondering how much can I have milled off the deck? Even at zero deck height piston to head and piston to valve clearences will be just fine. I want to get the compression as high as I can but .060 seems like a lot. Will the block tolerate this much removal or should I go with just .040 off the top?
