LA 318 advice

PRH said
The UEM piston catalog shows 318 blocks as having a 9.578” deck height in all listings for a 318.
That’s .021” shorter than they show for an LA 360.

They have a low buck 1.741” flat top piston available.

If I were intent on decking the block, I’d take it down to .030 below that 9.578” spec……… 9.548”.
That should put these pistons down the hole about .030”.

From what experience I have with the sbm and the reading that I've and people who I have talked to, all factory sbm's have a block deck height of 9.600". They might have mentioned that having the block decked 0.022" would help with the compression ratio
