How much of a tempature increase are some of you all noticing when
having the head shaved .100 or more???

With a good rad you should not notice any difference. I was having cooling problems last summer but I replaced my rad with a new extra capacity V8 W/ air rad and I never even came close to over heating in near triple digit temps this summer. Never got over 2/3's on the gage even after running it hard.

What length pushrods are using on your engine ??? Was wanting to take .125 of my head and was wondering some suggestions for pushrod
length....help??!!

I am using stock length push rods at 0.100". I would suggest you not remove more than that from the head. my chambers are only 39cc's. If you are looking for compression I would suggeest decking the block as well as shaving the head.
