Sadly Ed, I've looked through my photo files and I can't seem to find any of the pics I took of the machining process.
Here's a pic of the need to machine the head.

   

Notice how "proud" the over stroking has made the pistons at TDC.
I thought of and actually made a 1/8" aluminum spacer.

   

But I thought it would require 2 head gaskets and that would be too much spacing and I'd have possible leaks as well as lower compression.
