I purchased a used head that is clean but the seller didn't know anything on it. Is there any measurement I can take to see if it has been milled at all? Thanks Gene |

I think your best bet is to cc the combustion chambers. |

Thanks guys I figured there was something like this so I could ballpark it! Now I just have to dig the head out and see. |

It would be good to CC it anyway. Write it down and then you can have it for later mods. Also Piston height while head is off. You can CC on the cheap with a little piece of plastic, a 100 CC syringe and some rubbing alcohol. |
