never mind, big time false alarm, that just must have been in the crank rotation when I saw then last, I hand rolled it over and they are pretty dang smack dab toward the top of the cylinder, I couldn't even get a 1/32 of an inch probably, maybe a little less than that, 1/32 of an inch is 31.25 thousandths from the deck, so if its a hair bit less than that it must be in the 20-30 thousandths-ish probably below the deck, is this suitable? and with an 848 head and standard head gasket get me the 9:1 CR that the shop guy was quoting me? Thanks in advance gentlemen, but the Kool April Nights Parade in Redding, Ca is tonight and I am gonna go watch a couple thousand hot rods run around and rev up their engines, see on here later.


you can lead people to truth, but you can't make them see it!
