deck height

I have a D9TE-AB block. I know its a 79. But I can not seem to get a straight answer on its deck height from crank center to top of deck (block) I'm going to stroke it .060 over bore. But wanna keep compression at 10.5.1 with my C8VE heads. Any help with someone who knows more about this!

Has your block been bored to .030 already ? If it hasn't I'd go to .030. Most all kits start at .030. There is no appreciable power gain from .030 to .060 over.
