Sorry stroker... the head I have will fit the 500 QZ, not a 250... Wish I could help ya!
Yes, the 54cc will require a higher octane fuel.

TXDS, The compression depends on many variables. The biggest being your elevation/altitude and air density. Secondly if your motor has been ported, the trapped volume is often altered, thus making the answer even more difficult.

So... that being said, I can only tell you what it did for mine. At 7,000 ft above sea level with a 2mm raised exhaust port, I saw around 130# static compression.
Keep in mind, the higher the elevation, the thinner the air... You could expect a pretty decent gain being in TX... How much? I don't know. For reference, (If memory serves me correctly) the stock head is 62cc's.. I'm sure someone else will correct me if I'm off on that one.

I wouldn't recommend exceeding 180-185# static compression.

The brand is Pro-design 'cool head', it's brand new, only ran about 3 rides. It uses a stock head gasket, but can have grooves machined for O-rings (Which will increase compression further)

Let me know if your interested.

Duneaddict, I didn't know you were at 7000'. Man, thats got to suck the power out. No wonder you don't like thumpers. My new one is borderline fun at 500'. I wouldn't be able to stand it at 7000'.

The thumpers really suck wind up here...
