The only claim I have heard that makes it worth while, is that if you
cool the heads first you can allegly raise the compress .5 more before
knocking over a non reverse cooled engine.  This is supposed to be one
of the reasons that a LT1 can run with at 10.4:1 compressions.  And
adjusting the compression is somewhat expensive, unless you are
already redoing the pistons.
