ok the head roughly cc'd at 60 and like i said the pistons are .150 down in the hole . so what is the max you can take off the block? and how much lift can you run before piston to valve clearance is an issue? we were looking at maybe .120 off the block and .015 ish off the head & that should get us around 10 to 1 compression . just want to get an idea before we call for a cam ....

i wouldn't go anymore than .110-.120 off the block...

for me that is really hard to say because of valve timing and what not... what you might be able to do is call comp and tell them what kind of cam you want to run... they give you the specs that they would sell you... then ask them at TDC how far open will the int/exh valves be...

this is the only way i could tell you with out a cam in it...
