Just curious since it was such a long time ago if anyone's used the pistons out now already with the notch and obtained close to 10.5/1 compression without milling the heads down or changing the head gasket.

Using LQ9 pistons (flat tops) would get you 10.0:1ish....Stock gasket is .051, you could go to a .030 gasket to up it to around 10.5:1 and a .020 would be around 10.8:1

Unless you change to domes....I don't see it

Shave the heads either .020 or .030 and get the gasket needed
