Shaving the head does not change displacement at all. Displacement = bore x stroke. Unless you're boring the engine or changing the crank, the displacement stays the same. Changing the deck height (shaving the block) or shaing the head will raise compression and decrease p-v (piston to valve) clearances. Like I said before, just make sure you have the work done by a shop that knows what they're doing.
