Thanks for the all the information. After reading everything I realized I didn't give all the correct information about this. I picked this car up last spring and it's turned out to be just a bit better than a running basket case. Here's what the PO said he did. He started with a D3TE 391 truck block had it bored to 4.130, found a set of used 406 pistons and a 390 crank and rods. Didn't balance anything. Doesn't run bad after I got the carbs straightened out and it doesn't overheat here in Az. but knew I wouldn't be happy until I went through it and "made it mine". Not that many miles on it since his rebuild so when I found the 406 pistons for a good price I thought I would go through it again & fix some things. While the original pistons are flattop the Egge ones are dished. Theres a small difference in the pin height that's why I asked about decking the block. Does the 391 block change anything? The reason I asked about the EDC heads was because there's a pair on eBay now for 100$. Figured if they were a better choice I'd pick them up, but I think I'll stay with what I've got. Sorry about the curve ball.
