Default Re: High Compression Head

Because no one has mentioned it yet, I'm beginning to doubt myself but don't the pistons in a Model A engine come above the top of the block? If so, shaving the head too much will result in them hitting the head. NASTY!
To put it bluntly, don't be tight. Buy a HC head that was designed to work at the higher compression ratio.
