Milling the block and the heads to raise compression in this particular case is just silly. it's going to cost more to do all that machining and in the end you end up with parts that will fit nothing else .

Just throw it together and run it till you have the money and equipment to do it RIGHT ...

Machining the heads the right way does not make them parts that will fit nothing else. Done right they are interchangable between engines. I agree that the gain will be minimal and that pistons is the right way to go but as I stated but would you put pistons in a marginal or high mileage block without boring & fitting?? I wouldn't. Nor would I put new pistons and a bore job into the engine without having the heads reconditioned and the crankshaft checked out and trued if needed. But what do I know I am just a shadetree mechanic. Right Johnahah??



Lighten up Francis , Don my post was not directed at anything you said, the OP has been asking this question 30 different ways and is not getting the answer he WANTS to hear.
