I am not sure if you have pulled before ,or where or the rules, But where I live for the stock low gear pulling electronic ign is not alowed. You would want to check the rules for what ever class your going to pull. JUST A THOUGHT JON

If ya realy want to have a good puller don't use the fire crater pistons get your self some high alt. 4.125 pistons and have the head put on a flow bench and put bigger valves in it and a littel heavier springs new tappets and only take off the head enough to clean it up you will get more from the high alt. pistons then you will from milling the head add a true 450 intake and exhaust and do some tricken of the carb and dist. and a good cam grind and a good balance job be supprised what you will get out of it and reworking the gov. As far as porten and polishen let the guy that is doing the flowen of the head do that as he can see the improvement on the bench it is money well spent .

I would think that you can't mil the head far enough so the piston hits in the chamber. Just a thought.

Super M' I done the same thing on my first M puller,if I ain't mistakin'the combustion chamber in that head is about 1-1/16 deep on the high side.I milled my head .090 ported and polished the intake side of the head,don't do the exhaust and done the same to the intake side of the manifold.Don't hog it out or anything like that just clean up the cast imperfections real good.Good luck with it,my e-mail is open ...Gritty
