did you reshape the squish band or just cut the outer mating surface?


if you just cut the mating surface, i wouldn't go any further.

as you said previously, the piston is higher than the port, so now you can adjust base gaskets, and you'll be right where you want to be... try removing 1 .15 or .30 base and see what that gets you. you need to watch your compression. over 190psi can possibly ping unless race fuel mix is added...
