I was just going to post to watch out for the top end. Be sure there is adequate clearance between the head and the piston. The original and many reproductions had a recess in the head above the piston. Many high compression heads lack this recess. If the top of your block has been machined a couple of times you could have a problem when the piston pops up above the block..
