Sam,
I think the Lp piston would be a better way to raise compression to get performance. Also milling a open chamber head would be good.
Probably another 10 ft lbs with the bump in compression. Some say a 3% gain per point. Maybe more. You saw the #'s with the "194" head?

Scrap and Beater,
This has been alot of fun and really helped put #'s with performance mods done to the 292.

After the article is done and another done for the INLINERS mag, then I will post a summary here on the BRD. Really like to see as many become full fledged members as possible. There is alot to gain for us all. Tom
