Sounds good to me.

With the piston at 0 deck hieght with .054 headgaskets and 62cc combustion chambers you are looking at about 10.34CR sounds streetable when it comes time for FI you need to pick up a set of 6Ls which would give oyu 9.39. The pistons may actually be out of the hole a little mine were .008 out which would make you ahve 10.52CR what CR are you looking for?

low thats why i went with the dished diamonds to help lower the compression.
i'll be putting my turbo on it soon hopefully i've had the damn turbo for a year now but its still in my garage

Well then you are going to need a bigger dish piston and a set of 6L heads to get LOW compression like you want it aint going to happen with the LS1 heads.

A lower compression such as 9:1 will obviously not run as hard as the 10.5:1. You need to build the shortblock for what your future plans are. You will ahve to sacrifice power now for the turbo later you cant ahve it all when you are trying to do it how you are.

A set of 6L heads with the pistons at 0 deck hieght with 20cc inverted domes and the stock .054 headgasket thickness that will put you right at 9:1CR. There is no way around it man you are going to ahve to spend the money for the 6L heads you can put the LS1s on the setup I described and that would net you a 9.84:1CR which would be good for now till you go turbo then do the 6L head swap that is what I would do.
