From another thread, I asked how the machine shop decides on a piston. We've determined I need somewhere in the 23 to 25 cc dish to arrive at 9.5 to 10:1 compression on a 408 stroker. He wants pistons there before boring to 0.30 over.
Got this reply and I understand it except how is deck height after milling determined without pistons? I've seen technical ways but do they actually do it?
