RE: big block head choice

[Paul Lennemann <pjlenn@xxxxxxxxx>]

If the heads on the motor are closed chamber and it "runs like a dream" 
on pump gas why lose compression?  If you wanted to spend some money 
getting heads redone why not put it into the originals and put larger 
valves and hardened seats in them?
