why dont you just mil the I head to raise the compression back up. i just had my race e head shave .017 and the said they could shave .035 safely. if you shaved it to .035 that would raise the compression almost 1.5 points. i did some math to get the 86 E motor to 9.5 with just the shaving of the head thats where i got the .017 from
