Are you sure ?
I always thought putting the 1600 head on would up the compression a little.

| G161z heads and G180z heads just look the same. Going by the article in the workshop it will raise compression to approx. 9.8:1. |

| I always thought the extra size of the g180 was due to the 6mm more stroke?? Always thought the heads were the same?? I thought this about the g200 aswell but when I looked at one I noticed the difference. |
