But from what your saying, only leaving .125 material in the head above the piston would be too thin and liable to crack.
So what heads would people have used to try a 1/8 pop up piston? I believe Ron said he had tried this in another thread?
Thanks for all your input guys
If you want to go fast, go to a flat top gas ported piston. You will need to fill the heads for this.
