Guys who've lowered their compression using a thicker headgasket...
Ive heard that the thick headgaskets have a problem w/ oil leaking, do any of you guys have a problem w/ this? Like the Inline Pro/Cometic ones.

I have one of Cosmetics thicker headgaskets, I believe its .052" and the stock is .029". It lowers compression about .6-.7 points and I do think I have a VERY minor oil seapage but it has never dripped or ran down the block. I also havent noticed any oil burning.

I have the inline pro HG and had no oil leakage at all so far...ARP head studs work wonders
