    Compression ratio and engine heat

    I was just about to jump in and say I don't believe you could machine enough off for it to show as increased engine temps on a car with a correctly functioning cooling system ;)

    I'd also try a freeflow test and see if it's flowing volume from the return hose just off the rail then again at the return before the tank.
