057 which from what i read isnt good. the heads are 78cc speedmasters putting it around 10.5xx cr

do you think it will detonate on premium? or should either pull apart and shave .010 or try the .027 cometics? ive not seen any other options besides the cometics
Hard question to answer.... Generally it's well worth the effort to bring that piston close to the head .... Unless it's a power adder build.
