I'm considering what my options are for getting a little more pep out of the
motor -- including bringing the CR up to probably 9:1. I don't want to do
anything irreversible to it and am wondering if it's feasible to shave my
spare MGB head to get there or if I really need new pistons with a smaller
dish
along with a smaller skim.

Shaving that much off the head is a lousy way to do it and screws your valve
geometry.
Find an MGA head and a set of pistons and get it bored. Or find a 3 main
MGB engine and build it - you can put the rear engine plate from the 1622 you
have on it and bolt it in.
