would that take care out the dome being all chipped up? or should I have that ground out and the head shaved so I do not lose and compression? along with the oring and squish? and is Carl (iceracer) the guy to go to for the squish and oring as well as porting probably?

and when you say easier to start do you mean it wont kick back as much? I've got a gnarly hole in the bottom of my boot from that kicker already.
