I would STRONGLY recommend not going to this very low compression ratio!
Gas mileage, head temperature, engine life, and engine power will all
suffer.  Today's gas may not be full of TEL, but it isn't so bad that 6.9:1
is required.  That's one of Berg's absolute worst recommendations,
especially when coupled with semi-hemi heads.  Yuck.

Take care,
