        Hugh, John:

        That is correct. Triumph increased the thickness of the head,
thereby increasing the volume of the combustion chamber. They also
increased the length of the push rod to maintain the rocker arm
geometry.

John,

I believe that they did so by using a thicker cylinder head.
