I have a extra center layer from a Y8 headgasket from my last motor build and I was wondering if anyone has added a extra center layer to lower their compression a bit more. I want to do this becasue I want to use a Z6 head on my A6 block but I'd like the compression a bit lower.

 

i haven't done it but i've heard of other people doing it

just remove the rivets and slap the other layer in and go for it

 

yeah thats what I was going to do. I guess i'll try it out and hopefully it'll work

 

just run the factory d16z6 3 layer metal headgasket, people are making over 500whp on it, why change, best headgasket on the market hands down
