How much can I shave the head with a stock cam? I am building a d16z6. I am also interested if a lighter flywheel will help in horsepower. I run a 94 civic on a dirt cirlcle track, 1/4 mile. Would it hurt if I run a little bigger cam with the head shaved and run the stock pistons. I am trying all options on a budget. Please someone can you help me with some options.

A cams going to help, but don't go higher than a stage 2 without upping the compression. Mill the head as little as possible, and try to up compression through the pistons. The flywheel will help put some more power to the ground and help with acceleration, for circle track I'd get the lightest flywheel possible.
