It must help, all the ky boys are running 1641s with drilled valves and look at how good they are, $2000 to the good.

Its a Ky secret. Ask one of the KY boys, I think you have to have a special jig and know the right people to get it done, they wont do it for everyone. It lets the bad compression out of your motor.

I thought it ran that good because you totally emersed it in water and the water cleaned the motor out.

I heard you gotta leave the top compression ring off to do that in a VW. Makes it run like a 2 stroke since you only got 2 rings! :twisted:
