400 low buck dont give a

The .020 under on the bearings is actually a wash......The thicker bearings take up the slack on both sides effectively putting the rod right back in the stock spot. I ran a calc with a .039 head gasket with a 84cc chamber and got 8.85 to 1. I think with the thinner gasket you are using that 9.0 to 1 is about where you'll come out.
