Got the head back - dressed it up and assembled. Noticed that with .090 
shaved off, the headgasket (stock 86mm) protrudes into the chamber under 
the exhaust valve. Jack notes predicts this but not quite sure the best 
way to deal with it. I worked up the edge of the copper and can probably 
shave it back and roll it over again but it would get pretty close to 
the water relief. Can I run it protruding Jack notes says it won't last 
but I'm only .090 not racing all the time so...

How do you guys deal with this?
