    Piston to deck height Question

    Ok here is my issue. I was plugging all my spec for my build on the Eagle site http://www.eaglerod.com/
    and it is saying that my piston is gonna come out of the deck .011. It calls it -0.011 piston above deck. Is this acceptable. I am having HKE do the engine but dont want to bug him before i drop it off, nor do want this to be incorrect and not even work?
    Here is the piston specs. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/MLE-LS1340030F04/
    The Rods are just eagle h-beam 6.1's
    I swear i feel like a ra-tard some times

    That's fine mark. All stock pistons usually come above the deck around 0.010 or so.

    just curious where did you get your rods from and how much?

    and yes .010 like jon said is about right if they were the pistons for the 6.125'' rod they would be countersunk quite a bit in the bore because of piston pin location
    not to mention erik will check everything and let you know if something is wrong.
