Seems like Robert Lilly thinks rougher is better when having the heads, piston tops ceramic coated for even combustion temperature and smooth flow. I think you can control cc by stacking base shims or milling cylinder height or cutting cylinder height / heads in the gasket area. If you find a miracle, please advise us.
