I had been looking for a used High Compression Head, but it doesn't look like I am having any luck! Could anyone tell me where I could get a new one at a reasonable price? Looking for something around 7-1. Please respond to [email protected] Thanks!

Check with these people they are very helpful

Call Mr. Yapp he is very helpful.

Just be very careful about the increased stress on your old original engine.
The people that increase their compression above 5.5 to 1 usually rebuild the engines otherwise the original old engine components may be over stressed and fail.
But talk to Mr Yapp, over the past 30 years he has done things with Model A engines that you would never believe.
