Need more P/V clearance in a BB mopar

I think for now we'll leave the valve job as is, I'd hate to lose anything there. I really just need to decide how much to deck the head. Once I get the head from the shop, I'll check it with race springs and see where it's at. Then I'll just get a gasket that will give me what is needed. This project is taking forever and I just want it on the track. Next winter I can do some of the trimming of the valve head and maybe re-grind the cam, hopefully that will enable me to then get a thinner gasket and get some of the compression back. thanks all
