Default itr pistons in gsr

anybody know what the clearance is between the piston and quench area with u.s. itr pistons in a gsr motor with a single layer head gasket? i've heard that the piston will likely hit the quench area of the combustion chamber since they are blocked off on a gsr head.

All I did was put the parts on, no problems. I think the compression is around
11.1-11.5, runs fine on pump gas. 6months old, 6,000 miles. Mods are 94 GSR motor,US ITR pistons, Mugen thin head gasket,CTR cams,ITR intake springs,GSR
intake springs on exhaust side, Skunk-2 intake manifold,DC header.
