Yes, I want to leave the pistons alone, the motor runs great. Just want to wake it up a little and replace the 40 year old valve train parts while I am in there. A new cam will probably be called for.
12:1 would be a lot of fun when you can find fuel.
Any chance you wrote down your piston to deck distance when you assembled the motor?
Sounds like I will be safe shaving the new heads down around 58-60cc. I assume I can get the machinist to cc the heads once they are done.
Thanks.
