NHRA specs for the '99 346 cubic inch LS1 engine call for .015 ABOVE deck with a .052 gasket. Actual production specs may vary from those numbers.

ok. but with a 5.3 I would think that the piston deck height would be different because of the dish top pistons. I guess if i have to just find a block and mic it I will
