Will these rods work?

the reason i ask here is because this section has alot of knowledge. the pistons use .927 steel tool pins and it's a stock crank. yes i know it's a 6.250 rod. just need to know everything mates up.

Although im probably needing a math refresh on these formulas, wont that leave you an 1/8th" to tall for the deck height? Wouldnt the compression height need to be like 1.169 on stock stroke?

my compression hight is 1.103. I was going to run a 6.3 rod but I needed to lower my compression a little bit because of the dome pistons. and it should be in the hole. with a 6.250 rod can anyone check the math for me please.
