Anyone know kz440 piston compression height?

Just wondering if anyone had the compression height measurement of a KZ440 piston. I have to tear the jugs off anyways as I'm certain the rings are sticking in the number 2 piston. The cylinders are also quite glazed anyways so I'm going to at a minimum deglaze the cylinders and change the rings. If I have to hone a few thousandths out I will probably just knurl the pistons instead of trying to find a set of decently priced oversize pistons.
I already have a slight battle trying to find some new valves, the tip on one of them has a badly worn dimple that if I tipped it would probably be in the .060 thousandths range of material removed.
I'm also going to change the guides to a bronze guide. I already have a bunch that will fit correctly.
