853's to TEA??? i have a set of 80k mile 853 heads sitting in my garage and i'm thinking about sending them off to TEA to have them ported, polished, and milled......my question is how much could i mill them without having to flycut with my current cam?...(in sig)......if you were going this route with your car, what head gaskets would you use?

With that small cam, I think that you can mill them to 62cc and go for 0.045 head gasket without a problem.
That will pump your compression to around 11:1 and will give you a better quench.
However, you will still have to measure and you may let TEA decide on how much you can mill them with your cam.

really just wanting to bump up my torque (357)......i think i need a better tune as well......i figure working these heads over and adding a FAST int will get me near 440/400 to the wheels.
