Default Need help with deck height.

Newbie here and with ls engines, started checking things out on my 6.0 build and was looking at my deck heights and this is what I came up with, what should I do? Lq4 block .030 over, stock crank, scat rods, mahle pistons. The left bank is like this .012,.012,.015,.012 right bank .010,.010,.009,.004 I was thinking of taking .003 off #5 piston and decking the right bank .008 and milling pistons to attain the .012 height as the left bank. What do you guys think or what would you do, thanks for any help

I'd work on straightening out that right bank. Was the deck surfaced, or is there that much difference in the rotating assembly?
