Default headgasket to lower compression on h22

i'm looking for a headgasket for my 92 h22 that would lower my compression from 10.6 to 9.0-9.5. i've been having a hard time finding ones fror sale. how thick should it be? also how much am i going to have to adjust cam timing? any info or websites would be apreciated.

you could try greddy, i'm not sure on that though

Have you looked into getting lower compression pistons?
I believe you could drop some f22 pistons in there to lower it.

i plan on lowering the compression with a headgasket just so i can test out my turbo setup and get used to tuning the ems then i will sleeve it and drop in new pistons over winter. i've pretty much just been doing internet searches and haven't called that many companies.

Inline Pro makes a gasket kit for h22. There gaskets have been around for awhile and been proven to work pretty good.
