Default LS Block question

I got a block built at a place ( big name guys but will stay nameless ) . When I got the block back they have decked it so much that now the pistions are pushing up pass the block deck .. Let say maybe 10 thousand of an inch . Is there a fix to this or did I just lost a bunch of money .

What is the deck height now as opposed to what it was originally?
