Jerry - I haven't yet found a specific GMC manual to confirm, but a 2020 GMC engine conversation in the HAMB made reference to a 1955 Wayne Performance Parts catalog indicating the original 248 deck height is 11.25 inches.

Perhaps one of our GMC engine builders can provide more details/confirmation?
