You need to be very carefull with piston to valve clearance.

And the timing chain tensioner can only take up so much slack too.

Another option...

If you have a Non-SVT you could install the SVT pistons.


Another option...

Have material welded (added) into the custion chamber. Of course this means fully custom porting work too...

If you have a Zetec. Check into "Focus" aftermarket pistons and other guides for limits on milling the head


All of them would be labor intensive and some cost intensive...
