How old is the AFR meter sensor? The lead in race gas damages the sensor and it loses accuracy.

By the time I removed material from the valve pockets and small relief for the plug tips, my dome was down to 47.34cc. Approx 12.09 to 1.0. So far as depending on the speculative additional HP numbers I wasn't. Not that it wasn't a potential improvement over what I had, but what I had was an unknown in terms of its flow numbers. Bob
