There’s nothing carved in stone with the deck clearance on factory blocks. But from what I have seen there anywhere from .019” to .024” assuming all the rod center to centers are the same in a given motor along with the piston compression heights and the crank stroke .
Factory head gaskets could be anywhere from .048” to .028” in uncompressed dimension.
If your only building a street strip motor or one that’s race but not competing in a class then to me a deck clearance of between.019” to .024” is not worth messing with for the misecul gain in compression it will buy you.
