piston against valves

will wiseco pistons work with 1mm over vavles, the pistons are 20. over thats all i can remeber when i bought them.

Was the head cut or block decked? What pistons, stroker. HDs, I know my stroker .20 weiscos with a head that was skimed at least twice is fine. What I do with high compression v8 motors with big cam is put a head on with no gasket, put a thin layer of playdo on the piston top, rotate it and measure the points where the valve hits and see if theres enough clearance. If theres enough without a gasket then you know its fine with one. But to do this with a dsm you have to make your own custom solid lifter, thats what I did with my motor
 
Most after market forged pistons are designed to take OS valves, the valve relifes are cut for them.

what is more important is the lift on the cam
