Flat faced valves w/ CTR pistons?

When using Flat faced valves, with that affect the compression too much to keep it streetable for pump gas (93 octane?)

I forget how many points the flat faced valves raise the CR. So if someone could inform me.

The margins on the flat-face valves are also thicker than stock, putting the CC differential at about .5cc on most B series heads.
The mushrooming is fixed.

Ferrea as of now.

I might not even get them unless my OEM ones are bent, which they most likely are.

Len, I'll prolly talk to you about the ITR valves if I need them. I'm starting my rebuild sometime this week.
