Before I start I did try searching and couldn't find the info I need, but just In case I missed it I'm going to say sry now, just because I know how crazy some people get over duplicate posts lol
Any way I recently replaced my motor because I put a rod through the side of my original one (not getting into the details) the motor I got is good with 190-200psi across all cylinders, but unfortunately it has a bad valve seal on cylinder 4. Because my other motor still has a good head I want to build it up then just swap it. My plans r to port and polish, valve springs, 3angle valve, cams,thiner head gasket, adj. cam gears, and shave it.... Question is what's the most I can take off the head, and how much more compression can I get off this?
