heads. a thicker head gasket is not a good solution. the best way is to go ahead and get a good set of pistons in there now with a dish or reverse dome. maybe some rods too. better to do it now than later I always say.

I`m doing 6.0 heads and thicker gasket. 6.0 heads will get you better flow and 9.5:1 comp use a .067 cometis gasket and that will drop your total comp. down to about 9:1 compression.

sounds good myturbot/a,
ryanj, I've been all over the piston and rods, but I cant get the bottom end balanced for a reasonable price around here, so I'm just not going to go as high psi and I guess not make as much hp, oh well, $$$ is an issue!!!
