So if I ran long rod and wiseco pistons none or minimal head and deck milling and cut.the pistons
Could I get comp ratio down to 8:1 -- 8:5 ?
Can I buy thick head gasket good quality for 5 or 6 psi boost ?
Maybe clean head chamber to help lower comp a little ?

I'm running the weisco/k1 rod combo with a .1 inch thick copper hunk of a head gasket and a cylinder head with only a clean up pass 53 or 54cc chamber if i remeber correct. This got me a 8.6:1 compression ratio :)
Oh and i polished the chambers and smoothed edges only gained maybe 1 cc in the chamber
