Why don't you set it up on the tight side, then open up the combustion chambers to hit the compression numbers you want? Like Matt said, it will help with shrouding around the valves. This is the essence of hot rodding.

When they did the valves they unshrouded the area behind them. I would have to remove an additional 3 cc's from each cylinder. From what I understand if you take material away from the wrong places you can hurt flow. Not to mention the possibility of hitting a water jacket and thereby trashing my numbers matching heads. So basically I don't know how. I would have the machine shod do it but it would cost me more than the right sized -20 Weisco forged pistons would.
If I could only find a -19, -20, or, -21 hypo piston.
