First off my bottom end consists of B16a with JE 10.5:1's, Eagle H Beams, block is sealed, head studs, balanced....all that good stuff. I'm putting a Garrett T3/T04e 57 trim .63 a/r on it next week. I talked to a few of my VW buddies and they told me about stacking head gaskets to drop compression; ie. (factory metal, copper, factory metal). Is this possible on a Honda?? If so then if I do the FM, Copper, FM; will I still have to O-Ring the head. Thanks for any and all help.

Just specify to cometic or inline pro what thickness headgasket you need. OEM gaskets are not made to stack.....

Yeah it wont seal right if you stack stock ones

EDIT: What are you using for fuel management for your project?

 

Well fuel managment is going to be done my friend Steven (SpeedPhreak).
We are trailering the car to a dyno and and he is writing me a honda program to read pressure and to run the 450 cc's I'm using. I trust him with my car, therefore I trust him with my life.... For any future tuning I have a wideband for montoring.

Funny, my VW buddies say the same thing.

 

Can you stack 2 Copper gaskets together. I have two .43" copper gaskets...And I have heard O-Ring is necessary and un-necessary...So any help there would be greatly apprecciated...Thanks again
