I got compression numbers from a guy on the focus fanatics forums. He says that shaving .040 = 10.8:1CR and that .045 = 11.0:1CR He sells zetec heads that are already prot and polished and shaved to the desired compression ratio. I am thinking about the .040 as he doesn't recommend anything more on pump gas. What is the factory compression ratio for these motors? I am not trusting the carpoint website as it is ussually wrong. Is ours 9.6:1? Also a copper headgasket is a good idea but is it necessary since miy stock one has held fine with 155k miles on it?
