You cant use oversized, Im not expert, but High compression pistons, with Over sized valves, Plus a big cam= more than likly, a bad outcome.

Man, things like that make it impossible to answer your question, what the hell is shaved all the way? What is the compression height of the piston? What is the thickness of the headgasket and how far did you have the machine shop set the piston in the hole?


The best thing you can do is go to http://www.c-speedracing.com, read their article on how to clay a motor, clay your motor with the valvetrain you have now and see how much clearance you have. Then you will be able to tell how much larger you can go and that is just the beginning.

You need to measure your valve clearance. I wouldnt be willing to risk my cylinder head over some thread at HT. MEASURE.
