I went with the .005 per 1 CC and what I ended up with after being to small was .003 per 1 CC. I mistakenly just went for it and didn't check between cuts and ended up 6 cc's to small. So instead of cutting valves seats deeper and try and get back the 6 cc's ( which I doubt I could)I just bought a head. The second head was brought down the right amount and checked during cutting and the .003 per 1 cc worked on this head. Tomorrow the third head will be checked and should be ok. With this being my first time building instead of paying I learned a great lesson.

After sitting home tonight thinking about it I'm guessing if I had 2 different thickness head gaskets and the same bore I could have determined how much the 2 were in cc's and used that for a better gauge. Yes No maybe?

Cam has not been made and shipped yet. Ive heard from 2 others that valves wont need to be sunk to make piston to valve fit.

Correct, the Oldsmobile cylinder head is an inline design with a 6 degree valve angle. Completely different to a Chevy head with a 23 degree valve angle.

Great name for this project as I have been trading, ebaying, swap meeting parts for this project. Just bought complete new front steering components and a-arm bushings as the originals are shot $111.00. The third head was warped .020 and was not worth cutting as I was sure it would be to small after CC'ing. Fourth head was only .004 warped and after clean up it cc'd correct. Total $3666.50
