"Quench dome" height is 0.075". Take away the 0.015" the piston is below a stock deck, and the 0.020 of a steel shim gasket and the dome protrudes 0.040".I can't see that as being any worse than a flattop that lies at deck or below. Is it optimum? If he's lucky, but the heads are going to have to have been milled quite a bit for there to be any interference problems.
Piston weight of the 236 is 775 grams with a 190 gram pin. It's a lot heavier than I would suggest, but the OP is trying to get to 10:1 and this piston will do it. And a difference of 15-25 grams is going to be "good enough." Probably not a lot worse than Mopar original balance jobs.
So I stand by my recommendation.

PS: The word you were looking for is "allude." Elude means to escape something.



I stand by elude , he is trying to escape both doing it right and spending money ...

P.S. one is also assuming the heads haven't been cut , are straight and equal depth across the entire head , I also stand by the assumption he would be in over his head.
