And how much did you milled your H22A? And what horsepower did you get with it?

Milled how much?? and are you running stock cams? ever plan to??
i milled my head .050 and it ripped! stock cams, stock ports, hotshot header, ran 12.0 1/4 in a 4 door EG lightened to 2200 lbs, but still fast. BUT and heres the important part, i had stock cams,
Now i did the same to my new setup with skunk 2 stage 2 cams and bent all the valves on the first pass down the street..... so i'd say mill it if you never plan on running anything but stock cams.. but if not then you have to be REALLY careful because the piston to valve clearance is not very much! as my bent *** valves can tell you. its up to you. it does help but i'd avoid it if you ever plan on going with anything bigger than stage 1 cams.

ah i see.
So 0.050" is oke when i'm going for stock cams?
I have now my head about 0.026398" Milled.
So i'm save when i'm going to run with stock cams?
And how will it go when i go for Crower stage 2 cams?
when i use those, will it be safe? our do you guys say i need TO clay it then?
At least thank you to say that the engine will be oke when you did a 0.050" mill and it runned. SO i certainly save with my 0.026" mill.
Tommorow i'm going to start my fresh builded H22A

i really dont know why ppl shave heads to raise compression...do not play with honda sizes buy pistons and build it properly...the max. honda spec is .008" as per my prelude service manual...
On which page did you find this?

My understanding is that there are a number of indicators that show the maximum material that can be removed on both the head and the block. They look a bit like recessed "dots" (for lack of a better word). How else would you optimize squish if you didn't mill the head?
My block has been decked around 0.003" to 0.005", and the head was milled to get squish around 0.045" (it'll be different for every cylinder, unless you have the quench pads in the head machined to the same height) with a stock head gasket. There was pleny of piston to valve clearance with stock cams, but I don't know what the clearance would be like with aftermarket cams. I used adjustable cam gears to get the cam timing back to stock. The engine put down 204WHP with mostly stock internals (stock cams, stock pistons, stock rods, stock valves, etc). It's on a track car though, so there are a few other tweaks here and there.

because its cheap and easy way to bump compression and most of these people with hondas are broke *** people who want to build their car with virtually no expense.. , however it leads to other problems, like piston to valve clearance....... but you wanted an answer..
