Default LSx Engine Decking?
I have a 5.3 im building. Im using a set of 317 heads that i got milled .030" to get the chambers to 66cc. With the stock dish pistons (which i dont want to change) this only gets me to like 9.2:1 Compression ratio. I want to squeeze a little more compression out of it and was thinking of getting the block decked a little maybe. Is this safe of an LS motor? Is it going to cause my intake not to line up with the ports at all? Never done it and wanted to get some insight.
Thanks
