The chart in post 22 shows the same .023” deck height for the RA4 as the other 400s shown have, and in 1970 all the 4 bbl 400 motors are showing the same ,028” head gasket.

But you do have a point about the depth of the valve notches that the motors would have needed since the RA4 heads had far shallower chambers, but then again the 1970 RAIII having a 10.8 compression when the maximum ever seen in print in any 70 or pre 70 Pontiac literature is 10.75 is very suspect to me!
