MG MGA - head mods

Now that I've been through my new toy a 1500cc roadster from front to back, one year to date,I would like to have the std. engine preform as well as possible.
I don't know if it has had a three angle cut etc., Is it possible to tell without having to remove the head and then maybe finding that this has been done !
A dyno run perhaps ? Thanks Sean

You may be able to see it using a bore scope with a valve open and the intake or exhaust manifold removed. A video camara set up with a fiber optic probe might also work if you have access to one. A dyno run can only give you the HP and torque curves, not what causes them.
