[QUOTE="96blak54, post: 1343674, member: 14727"] You should be worried! The rods will grow some from heat expansion as the pistons will too. Knowing exactly how much takes experience with each item. To achieve a tight squish, normally a builder starts will a workable scenario at a comfortable distance and works it in tighter by head gasket thickness changes after hard runs. My suggestion, run a thicker gasket unless you/someone have built that same senario multiple times and know where the limits are....run the thicker gasket. Do you know what cams youre going with?. Judging by the stall im guessing a late IVC point with tons of overlap...? [/QUOTE]
