That's what spring shims are for - to get them as close to factory installed height as possible, probably 1.650.
Shims are availabe in many thicknesses, as are diameters.
+ or - .005 is alright, and 125 lbs. on the seat is good for a hi-po motor.
While apart, match porting is almost free horsepower, and bowl clean-up really makes a difference, but might take 4-6 hours.
