Forgot to add, deck height came out to be around .025. According to my calculations, this brings compressing to 9.45:1 assuming a 72 CC head. I won't know my head's specs for a while, that'll be a fund raising project of it's own since it seems to be an area where great improvements can be made. Lump ports, roller rockers, larger valves, etc etc.

Is there any certain areas that these heads were known for having cracks? Something I can keep an eye out for before I send it to be magnafluxed and the like?
