How far can i mill a 240 head?
- Thread starter ruthless_one3k
- Start date
The sticky at the top of the page say's up to .035 more than that will require race gas.Once you get it milled check the compression i think anything over 155 psi will require race gas.
There is no exact way to guess on the amount that you can take off a head to dial in an exact compression, start off small and check with a "good" compression tester.
I continuesly get calls on this. If you want to guess then mill away, but if you want to be correct in modding your motor. Mill, check and document the increase. This way you will reach the compression to match the octane that you are running and you do not detonate the thing apart.

yeah I dont want to go off half cocked and start guessing, and I like the idea of going a little at a time but I dont have the equipment to do it myself and the closest place I can find to do it is about a half hour away so could you give me a deffinition of starting off "small" are we talking .005? .010? .020?
How much should it cost?
isnt the stickey at the top of the page for a standard 200 jug? would those guide lines also apply to a 240?

I think you should check your compression to see where your at now. Then call or pm Flotek. He can mill your head or mabey reccomend a starting point. But talk to a pro for sure.
