Hmmm. That could be trouble from a manufacturing standpoint. From my
understanding, and depending upon the assembly process, taller components
need more spacing around them. Whereas manufacturers like more space around
relatively short BGA's to provide additional room for inspection scopes and
to allow for re-working nozzles. I haven't used PADS though. 
Good luck.

Hi Jim,

Got it, thanks.  I'm switching too much between PADS and Allegro...in PADS,
you set a global body to body value.

Regards,

Austin
