Hi,
I am building up a 1988 2.7 Super eta engine (budget minded).
I am using the original pistons but would like to go to 9.5 - 1 instead of the stock 8.5 - 1. I calculated .040" to be milled off the head. Can I do this? Did I calculate it correctly? We are assembling the engine with all the used parts and checking with clay to see what clearance I have before milling.
Any thoughts on this? Will I be sorry with what I am doing?
