L2355Fs should be zero deck but are often .015 to .035 off that due to factory tolerences. Often side to side there is quite a difference. i have though had two that were within .002. Pretty rare though.

Sorry , it's not factory TOLERANCES , if you do the MATH to FACTORY blueprint specs , NOT NHRA , the 2355 is .021 BELOW the deck .

Why it matters, I do not know ...but yes, I have run a 4000 pound plus car, street car actually. I added 200# to my 3800# car just to see how much it slowed it down. It went 9.70 w/ an extra 200# in it. CHIP

Two different lines of thought. One comes from a drawing board and one off the assembly line. In reality if it was line bored, rod shortened, decked, or a few thou out in any direction it will not come out to exactly .021". Thats the reason he said the actual number could be from xx - xx. And you don't want to build it to .021 deck height, so I am not sure why that fact is relevant.

I think you should get to know Don a little better by clicking on link in his reply,he probly has forgot more about mopars than most will learn blowing big cash.I for one would back him up anywhere anytime,check out the lemans charger,it should impress you a little,it impresses me alot. Computer jocks,I have those too heavy pistons in original block,was torn down verbally for ancient technology,well my car is probly worth more with them than your car but that is just me.I like bullet proof and anyone can run nines,even slant sixes or 4 bangers.Sometimes people can poke the bear and not know it.I would love to sit down and get to know Don and have his knowledge rub off on me.Too many people don`t post on here much anymore and from some comments and symbols I can see why.Have a nice day,I like eating camaro`s too.Record holders or not,I am here for input and knowledge and hope to help someone not make the same costly mistakes,even make friends,enemies are easy to make.
