I'm trying to be able to change compression ratio with out doing the machine work all over again.

Ditto with SCE, I use a .093 custom made gaskets.......no troubles at all

ok, I'll ask the obvious. Doesn't having .080 or more clearance kill your quench? Or is there other factors to make up for it? (like the afforementioned 15:1) Huge domes, hemi with no quench to speak of...or am I right but this is a band aid?
(and sorry, I don't mean to be belittling a huge dollar well prepared race engine or offend by calling it "band aid")
