Or, you could have the 8CM heads milled enough to get you to a .050 "squish" over the piston . You would probably have to do some grinding to bring the head to a uniform combustion chamber. Then you would have the best of both worlds. I believe it is common knowledge that increasing compression is the easiest way to pick up power in an otherwise stock flathead. You might as well take advantage of today's better fuels.
