Looking for really high compression head

Post by Craig Leach » Mon Aug 26, 2024 4:19 pm

Hi Guys & Gals,
Some time ago there was a very high compression head advertised on the classifieds that had almost or no relief over the piston. My search did not find it anywhere. Did it sell or is it still available?

The highest CR head that I have ever seen was the Sherman aluminum head that was finned and offered in 4 or 8 plug arrangement.
