High Comp heads on 416?

Unfortunately our flycut LS3 decided to break a ring land this week.
Simply trying to see what is reusable if I go down the path of a 4" stroke.

You can always get a piston with enough dish to bring the compression to where you need it.

And if you get dished pistons, that much less of a risk of PTV clearance issues.

Basically, I'd advise reusing the heads/intake. What cam to use will depend on the totality of your build.
