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.
