Stopping the knock: Lower compression and ported heads...

I didn't start threads to alienate people. I asked for help in an area that I had little understanding.
I understand brakes, suspension, body and paint. I've restored numerous cars, rebuilt several engines and resurrected cars that were long dormant.
My experiences of trying to run a high compression ratio engine on the street are well documented here and elsewhere. This is one area where I really need help. I have learned some new things and read stuff that never occurred to me.
Jokes? I can appreciate them as well as anyone. What I do not like is to be openly ridiculed or insulted. When I make insulting comments that are NOT a personal attack, I make great efforts to let others know that I am not serious.
I got pissed and made an impulsive response. I saw my mistake and tried to correct it. Dont care to forgive? Oh well. I suppose I'm the only one that is capable of making mistakes.
