Default What do ya think ?

So doing a little winter motor work on my stock motor for my FXR . The 90'' motor I have is a little to much on the street (being 12:1 + compression and all) and I want to perk up this little 80'' motor. So I am gonna pull the heads and swap out to some 10:1 pistons put a 5angle valve job and blend the valve seats. My real question is should I do a Woods W6H or a W8. I am trying to get as close to 90 as I can without cutting bigger valves right now. Oh and I got a mikuni 42 and 45 gonna run with both to see what I like better.
