he's only looking to spray a 200 shot guys. If he went custom he could bring the rings down some, and that would help, however with that 6" rod he might turn it into a bit of an oil burner. I definitely agree a new piston is in order however, unless he wants to take 10 cc out of those heads, if that's even possible....

OK so would these be a better decision then????
SBC125030F05 4.03" 3.750 6.000 0.927 1.125 -5cc 406 11.1
I calculated these in the c.r calc and I got a total of 12.11 inputing a + number for valve reliefs?
lmk guys I really need to order some pistons and need to know will these handle a big shot?

So I guess I will go with those pistons and .040" head gaskets and call it the day then correct.

I then can use my exact same setup with these above

didnt look at the part numbers and the actual pistons or ring land thickness, but, i've milled dome pistons for guys to drop their compression.
