the 848 head will change compression by itself from the stock 6.2 to depending what you read 7.8 to 8.1. there are a bunch of 261 rebuild threads in the engine shop. just search them out (261 as key word). i know because you have the same build going on as i do, right down to the year of the motor. and i have started a few of the threads good luck
