It should be fairly straight forward to get 9:1 on a 235 rebuild using the 848 head. Head was run across the grinder to straighten up, inserts, new stainless 1.5 valves. Bore it .060 with flattop Bagger pistons from Patrick. Howard's M4H 3/4 solid lifter cam set at .012 and .014. When compression checked recently it was 160 across the board thats 9:1.
