If I am recalling correctly, you can't go above the block with the piston stroke as the combustion chamber does not completely cover the bore and relying on the gasket thickness to provide the space is very risky at best. Remember that these were low-revving high torque engines where horsepower was more or less secondary.

Hi Don,
The goal is to get the piston closer to the flat area of the cylinder head, not into the combustion chamber. Mark

FYI the V8's used a 0.045 quench distance.
