Formula to shave pistons to reduce compression ??

I am lost here, you dont have the pistons and you wanted to have them milled to create some dreamed up static CR? What did I miss?
Just remember when you do things "the cheapest way possible" when building an engine and than you hit it with a bottle the net result normally ends up to be a big steaming bag of crap.

I should have said not cheap parts but rather not top shelf stuff. The piston I neede was to replace one in an engine I thought about buying.
I wanted to replace one piston but at a minimum have to buy four. Anyway it’s a moot point I’m fine with a 408 stroker kit. I’m uncomfortable with a 60 overbore even if it’s sonic checked especially as it has gouge marks in the wall.This is an engine that I was going to buy but it would have high frig factor. I’ll get the kit do it right the first time. My magnum has a stock bore and I will go 30 over.
