title says it all. How much variation between cylinders in Deck Height do you builders tolerate? i'm shooting for no more than .001, but i'm curious how steadfast i need to be in this...

damn KB 96's stick out of the jugs, mmm, just a little bit...

current deck height:

#1 -.204
#2 -.203
#3 -.215
#4 -.214

Desired deck height:

055-056

off to have the machinist whittle out some .25 cylinder spacers (!)....

well, it would appear that i may have the wrong pistons....

yes, they stick out of the jugs about .200 (yes, nearly 1/4 inch)

As I recall, the pistons you seek have the wristpin bosses located much closer to the crown. It's also possible you have the wrong rods. Insert the usual "combo" comment here.
