Default Re: 8BA Edelbrock head clearance

OK, so with the material in the head over the piston, has anyone tried using 4" pistons on a 4.125" crank and machining the head .125" and blending into the valve relief.
In theory this would allow compression to be kept high while allowing good flow up high in the chamber as opposed to relieving?
