SHIVERS: how come you told me to compensate for the Piston to deck displacement with 0.000 instead of the stock 0.020. I know it is because the piston is bigger, but if it is 0.000 won't it be hitting the deck, then I will have clearance issues, NO? Or is the 0.000 just a rough estimate of it?
it means that the piston is level with the deck of the block at the height of it's stroke. thats why you should clay to make sure everything clears it ok.

basically when in the compression stroke all the air/fuel is compressed fully into the head before combustion.
