I have a stock d16y8 and want to run high compression like a mini me but without changing my pistions so i want to no if i can just mill my head. I would be using a bone stock head and block with a stock y8 headgasket. I want to mill .08 In off the head would that still give me enough valve clearence between the pistions.

I read a while ago the max you can go without having to get a custom belt is .040 That combined with a 1 layer gasket for the head or a cometic thinner gasket will give you some points. Its nothing crazy. I saw a calculator onliine before so try searching for that. Good luck.
