I don't have a clue on distance. I will verify valve clearance and everthing before messing anything up!

Yes they are domed like crazy!!!! Killer compession! They have a dimple for the plug.

What heads are you using with this? Flat top pistons with my 317s put me around 11:1 cr, and your pistons are much larger...

I believe he is going to run 317s and plans to be around 12.5:1.

Yes I am using my 317s ported and polished.

The guy I bought it from had l92 69cc heads and said his compression was just over 13:1. I have been getting the idea that mine should be around 12.5:1.

If anyone has an idea that would be awesome.
