so shave you're head/deck and use a thinner HG. OR spend $400+ on some forged pistons. I wish I would have went with some forged pistons my first time around.

hit up ebay and look for d series pistons. as long as your block isnt bored or changed you can order a set of any d series and be good to go.

LOL try more like 6.64 :-X. The true dome is -15'cc. Best thing to do on the cheap would be to get vitaras, and fjt new longer rods to bring up comp/ shave head.

To lower the compression on the cheap, you could get some 86-87 D16a1 or D16A6 pistons.
