Default ls/vtec setup...where to get headgasket?

hello all, i am trying to bump up my compression to 12:1 with my ls/vtec setup so anyone know where I can buy a thinner headgasket? a 2 layer one or maybe even 1 layer. would it be wise to do this? this is my daily driver. thanks

b18a block, pr3 b16a pistons, gsr head.

have you searched around ? i mean you can get a goldeneagle head gasket to whatever size you want. remember that the stock headgasket size is .28 so going to a 1 layr is enuff to give you the compression your looking for.

Stick with a 3-layer gasket not worth the trouble to pull apart for a little bit of compression
