Hey guys, Ive got the block all assembled now (vitaras on eagles with arp bolts) in a D16A6 engine with a built head thats milled .040

That will bring my compression to about 8.45:1, maybe a bit higher. Now Im looking to run about 15-18psi on this motor and I want to know which headgasket to buy to not only raise the comprssion a little, but will drop right in but can also take the abuse of 18psi with some copper spray and ARP headstuds

Any help, info would be appreciated

Thanks guys

stock are fine if installed correctly

btw
theres no need for copper spray if the block and head have been decked and cleaned

a good surface will provide good seal

theh copper is used to "fill" the small imperfections on the surface when they arent serviced when installing a new gasket

Ok what gasket will lower the compression the most?
