If the head is milled .025" it will raise it to 10.5, if there is enough clearance and it is milled .050" it will bump it up 2 full points. Anything above 10.5 and you should run 93 Octane Petrol. At that point you may also want to invest in a variable CDI one with a potentiometer so you can adjust the spark curve if need be to prevent the dreaded sound of engine knock""
    the same SSR22925 that came on to post 2 comments in defense of the indefensible liar Gardo, then disappeared?
    Barnone, SSR22925 is either the mystical Weaver himself, or someone associated with Weaver Rides, whom Gardo often mentioned had the "weaver magic" with absolutely nothing to back it up.

    He made claims of "decked" head, but again no details but for this one post.

    I made a bunch of posts a while back with evidence I believe discrediting alot of this...
    But if you have any faith in this guy that stood by while Gardo claimed his CCW was cruising down the GSP at 90 mph, then by all means give it a try.

    I hope it proves true, Id love an excuse to put mine on the mill, easy enough, but i just dont buy any of it
    Or you could try a thinner gasket material. I keep a roll of 1/64" felpro karropak just for such a experiment. see any results then we can talk...
