Thanks for that. I'll call Cometic. The only gasket I can find on their site for a 221 is a drain plug gasket.
I'm looking through my junk for a used std bore piston, I'll assemble a used rod and piston into the block and see what that shows me for deck height. Like you say, it could well be different than theoretical.
