dome pistons, smaller combustion chamber heads, thinner gasket.

You have the intake and carb setup for it. what is your cam? What ammount of timing are you running? 9:1 is kind of low. I would look into doing timing accually, you not too far off of 300. hell your could be a bit rich or what not. You have over 300 flywheel HP. Just not at the wheels.
