James,
I have seen this build formula several times and in several places
over the years. What I haven't seen is specific information on the need
(or lack of need) for milling of piston head and/or cylinder head, to
control the C R. Please tell us what you did/didn't do and about what CR
you think you have, as a result. I sure would appreciate it.
