The only way to know for sure would be to dummy build the engine (use the old headgasket) with some plasticine on top of the pistons. Turn the engine over a few times with a spanner on the crank then remove the head. The valve's will have made an indentation in the plastacine and will show you how much piston to valve clearance you have.
