With my roadracer I always just stated out at about .020 squish and reduced it until there was contact. Then I increased it a few thousandths. Just shy of contact is where the best power is.
I usually found it ended up at about twice the piston to cylinder clearance.
That was with steel rods and full skirt pistons.
I broke a few cases but not from piston contact with the head.
