Head Gasket Thickness effecting Compression on H-series
I know stock is right under .030...I think .026... Ho wmuch will the compression be lowered if i go with a cometic .060 or .080? My block was decked and my wiseco pistons are hitting the bottom of the head. Im debating whether to just go super thick and be safe or just get what i need and keep my quench nice and tight. But if the compression is not "TOO" different then id rather be safe. The Pistons have a huge dome so i have compression to spare

Re: Head Gasket Thickness effecting Compression on H-series
you probally have the wrong pistons for set-up if there hitting the head
but there is a compression calculator for the h/f motors in the civic faq
but a ruf estimate is if stock pistons are 10.0.1 cr with a .026 headgasket a head gasket with a tickness of .060 would lower the cr too 9.5.1 thats an estimate,,, find the h series calculator in the civic faq
