But it will ofcause raise my compression rate, witch is allready high (10.8 : 1), shaving 0.01" of the heads will give me 11.11 : 1 compression rate. That's high, but hopefully I can still run on pumpgas (Shell V-Power)

You could always open up the combustion chamber with a little grinding then "CC" each combustion chamber for equality.
Would rather with today's gasoline have less compression ratio than too much...Mark
