Deck Height for ‘77 rebuild

I am rebuilding the top end on my 77 2.7L and am about to start putting things back together.

I just got the cylinders back from EBS - Alusil cylinders redone in Nikasil - and the heads are coming back from Craig this week.

Some cylinder porn for you:





when I took apart the cylinders before, I unfortunately did not note the copper shims - but I do know that they cant have been the same and that at least one was as thick as 1.25mm

I read in Wayne’s book about using solder to measure and adjusting based on that. But do I do that for each cylinder? And if they’re different could that cause issues when I got to install the cam box?

Thanks,
