Take your head and cylinder to a machine shop and have them checked to see if they are warped,then install the HD studs this will fix your problem as I was having the same problem,did the above and have been racing for 2 years no problems since.

You are running a 12.5 to 1 piston on 93 fuel? There's your problem.
