compression height 6.0 truck block What compression height are you guys running on the 408's and 370's. I have heard the deck height on the 6.0 iron blocks is 9.230 and the aluminum blocks are 9.240 is this true? Everywhere you look you get a different answer. I am trying to decide which piston set to buy for a turbo setup. Right now I am thinking Wiseco but don't know which set to buy. I will be building a 370 and will be reusing my ls6 heads.

Deck height on my 6.0L block is 9.230". Reading it right off the build sheet from LME. I have the -8cc Wiseco pistons with stock LS6 heads and my CR is right around 11.25:1.

Anyone on compression height? Wiseco's website says the 6.0 truck block deck height is 9.230 so I guess that is confirmed. I thought the compression height of the piston should be 1.294 but the closest on Wiseco's site is 1.300. Do the pistons come out of the block at tdc.
