Default Heads, Gaskets and Intake

Heads recieved enough decking to get the huge 074 chambers down close to the original 842s. With super thin cometic gaskets and head work compression came in at 10.8 to 11.0 :1 accross the pistons.

Next part gets a bit tougher. With that much machining on the heads this sinks the bolt holes for the intake further downward in the engine. This then means the intake holes no longer line up and you cant put the bolts in.
