Doing it on the Cheap 1300 pistons are an easy way to gain more compression but you dont get as good burn that you get with the 1600 pistons as the combustion chamber in the 1300 pistons is offset to one side of the piston crown so dosn't fill as well + the 1300 pistons have a thicker crown which also makes them heavy. You get best results from decking the block and turning down the piston crowns to suit. You will also probably find you will need to pocket the pistons to give some clearance to the valves if you ar running a hot cam. Various tuners have different Ideas regarding the flat heads and chambered heads and there are many arguments for and against each. I'm running the chambered head on mine with big inlet valves, 1600 sport exhaust valves, 10:1 compression using 1600 pistons and decking the block, standard twin throat weber carb BCF3 cam and after a good tuning session on the dyno its been sweet reliable and drivable motor at 110hp, Ive put alot of cars to shame that are claiming much bigger power than what mines making!
