swapping heads
well fellas time has come to take off the top end and see whats going on, seems to me I overheated the motor with my old radiator and bad #7 plug wire. Going to work one day my temp rose to L in normal and momentarily I saw oil pressure go down and up and it never did that before, it doesnt do it after that time either. I replaced my old crappy radiator with a new all aluminum dual row rad and it works great! Problem is it smokes white smoke, oil burning smoke, Im not loosing any oil or antifreeze both levels are fine and clear. My coolant level rises in the reservoir after a hard drive of 10-15 min and starts bubbling a little bit. The smoke is more noticable when its really warm at idle and really bad when i start it back up when its warm. Im going to tear it down tommorow and while im in there im going to swap my p's for some x's "in talks will know 4 sure tommorow". It has 64cc chambers and I have a explorer longblock with a steeda stick, What would my comp ratio be??

RE: swapping heads
Lift has nothing to do with piston to valve clearance. It is more related to the individual valve events for each valve.
Mainly, the period of overlap, when the exhaust valve is closing and the intake valve is opening at the same time.
