Default Deck height on the 3.6 & 3.8L Porsche Turbo engine

Hi

I'm looking for the basic data of the oem 3.6 & 3.8L watercooled 996-997-991 engines.

1) What is the deck height of the 3.6 & 3.8L Engine?

2) What is the height of the compressed head gasket on both engines?

3) What is the overall deck height on both engines?

4) What is the lowest oem compression height on any of the 996-997-991 engines, na or turbo?

5) What is the longest c/c oem conn rod on any of the 996-997-991 engines, na or turbo?

Thanks in advance!

It seems like the oem 911 996T/Mezger has the following spec:

* Conn Rod 127mm
* Compression height 33.1mm
* Stroke 76.4 => 38.2mm
* Gasket heights 0.25 + 1 (?) => 1.25mm
=> 199,6mm...?

Since the engine was conceived in metric surroundings I maybe dare to guess it was set @ 200.0mm...?

How did you come by these numbers?

Thanks for your reply Macster

Adding rod length with the compression height of the piston plus half the stroke and the gasket heights (yet assumed) results simply in 199.6mm.
