318 Build.. Zero Deck or Stock Deck Clearance?

Honestly, if you have not spent a dime on the 318, I would order a blueprint 408 short block and be done with it, by the time you rebuild the 318 it will cost the same.
I just got done throwing a dry seized teen together, granted I used stock pistons and a set of J heads, all parts were raided from my parts stash, except the usual, rings, bearings, gaskets and cam.
I did splurge for a new intake and carb.
The results, a super low compression 7.5 static and 6.97 dynamic compression, do I care no, it is just a parts engine, to get a old drag car running, but I am throwing twin turbos on it which will raise the compression up to 11.7 with 10 psi, will it live?
I doubt it but it is just an experiment, too see how far I can push things until they go bang.
But I bet I have 2K in that old scrapper 318, the value for buck is just not there.
Funny thing was I dropped the 318 parts off at the machine shop.
The next day a good friend sold me a good running 340 cheap.
It cost more to tank the block, turn the crank, and have a valve job on the pos teen, than I paid for the 340.
I just built the teen to see how this experiment goes.
My point is, a teen is a nice stock engine, ultra reliable, I have alot of them, but a 340 or 360 make cheaper horsepower.
