Maximum Block Decking Hey guys and gals, I first and formost would like to say, if this has been talked about before, I couldn't find it via Google, Search, nor Stickies.
I'm in the process of building my wife a car, my build will consist of an LS1 block, 4.8L crank and Eagle 6.300 long rods. I really want to run a Diamond Shelf Nitrous Piston but the Piston Compression Distance is 1.115 and with a 9.24 Deck I need in the 1.305 area. Now my questions is, how far can we actually deck these blocks. I need to take the block to a 9.05 deck height to achive a 0 piston to deck clearance. Now before anyone ask as to why I want to build a destroke motor, its basically to compete with the coyote displacemet wise, and for the fact I can rev it to the moon on.
Thanks in advance, Scott.

Or just run a 6.50" length rod...

It's an SBC rod, so you'd need to make sure there's clearance between the pin boss and small end of the rod, but it's a lot better than milling almost a 1/4".
