5.9, max safe compression?

My head is spinning on this one, and maybe It would be smart to go with a piston combo that would allow me to "fix" a too high compression situation. The point made about lowering cr with gasket changes would be easier with the Sealed Power pistons and thier 11.23cc dish. The trouble is the Sealed Power pistons would requier two extra steps, decking the block and balancing the rotating assembly. That adds another $300 to a project that was sopposed to be a low budget build. I need to win the lottery or something. Too many projects.
