    I am looking for a reputable local shop that can mill cylinder heads. I was told that my new cam would react well to some extra compression so I would at least like to see how much this would cost me.

    Any recommendations?

                    lol ok guess ive just never heard of it.

                    Im probably done working on it until monday or so since i am busy w/ stuff until then. But I will be looking into pulling the heads next. Still havent decided for sure if I am doing that.

                            stock compression is 10.5:1 with a 54cc chamber and a .050 compressed thickness head gasket

                            Id like to mill 25 thousands off and switch to an impala gasket (.029) to achieve somewhere around 11.6:1
