Damn. They took of almost 2mm. That can't be good, can it? Does Honda have a minimum measurement spec for that?

Compression ?

2mm .......... the only compression will be when the pistons compress-on your valves . when a head is milled the usually take off a fraction of a mm ( for safety reasons ).
