After 300 miles I now have a small crack in the water passage near the center of the head. If there is no flycut for the pistons and the deck is questionable keep looking.

Curious if you know how deep the flycut originally was on the 6:1s...after cutting, mine ended up at 0.035 and I know it was cut 0.025" this time. With the truing up my block needed, we ended up taking 0.015 off the piston tops to provide sufficient piston-to-head clearance.
