Agreed with the above, kind of!

It takes at least a 4 CC change to do anything positive in terms of power improvements.

A 2 CC change is is just polishing your shillelagh!

For your motor to end up with a compression of 10.5 to 1 you need a total CC volume above the piston at TDC of 99.15 CCs.

I can't see why you need a 22 CC dish.

This is what I come up with for total CC numbers which assumes zero deck clearance.

Chamber volume 72.CCs
Head gasket volume 9.4 CCs
Zero deck. 000
Valve notch volume/ flat top with 2 valve notches. 4 CCs
Ring land volume 1.5 CCs.
Total 86.9 CCs

So you only need a dish of 12.25 CCs to end up with a 10.5 to 1 ratio

If you wanted a ratio of just 10.1 your total volume needed would be 104.66 CCs, and still that's a total dish volume of only 17.76 CCs.
