RE: 1980 Spitfire Head

["Gene Eighmy" <w4eae@netzero.net>]

I agree with Joe... I milled only about 0.060 and it pings on 87 octane so
bad I bought some Lucas Octane Boost.

The most milling I have heard about is 0.200 on RazorBob's '79.  Kastner is
probably running at 10.5-11:1 compression and running it on Jet Fuel... now
that would be fun!
