Eddy - nope, no piston coatings.

I just hope I don't have to cut the piston tops because of the .006" deck cut. I'll find out when I test fit the rods and pistons.

I've forgotten how much the heads have been cut, but I think I'm now over the .008" limit for heads and deck suggested by the FSM.

I need to do a lot of careful measuring on the combustion chambers, piston/deck clearance and piston relief because I spec'd to the low side on the piston dish...... with that, in combination with the overbore and the heavy deck cut, I'm getting a little concerned with the static CR. I was counting on 9.1:1 maximum, but I have an idea that I might be looking at 9.3:1 static CR.

Whatever...... I'll figger out something.
