He's already doing it...

I'm looking at the pictures and wondering what the hell is up with the head. Now I'm thinking that those holes all over the squish area are punch holes that were made to either create space or heave the metal up to give more pressure when torqued down. That probably didn't work, so he might be reasoning that filing grooves away from those areas will bleed pressure away from those areas when compression occurs, so that the head gasket won't blow in those areas.

Just rambling on here, and trying to figure out what the hell is going on in his head, though it doesn;t seem much...
