One point which should be emphasized, is that the valve head shape and valv=
e depth have a huge impact on chamber volume.
Different style valves will have different shape on top, ie flat vs dished,=
 and for any given thickness, a head with new valves & seats will have cons=
iderably less volume than one with valves that have been faced a few times =
and deeper re-cut seats.
To really know what the CR is, the head volume has to be measured.
