Default 2 Head Gaskets?? High Compression?

does anyone know which layers to use on a head gasket to make a 5 layer? LS block with ITR head and CTR pistons.
thanks

whoa. wha?
using multiple gaskets? wow. i dont have an answer for you on that but i must say, im scared for you if you want to use 2 gaskets.

i got an enginge from a kid, and the guy that "built it" for him said he did lower the compression. it was a b16 block, ls crank and rods (yeah) and 5 stock head gaskets. the kid got hosed.

LOL at the 5 gaskets.

If the point of using two gaskets to lower compression than you might wanna go with Comedic.

You should just run e85.

Why in the world do you want to do that? The title is decieving, but whether it is you or a suggestion from someone else it is a bad idea. Its almost a joke to see this posted becuase it doesnt seem well thought out. the title should at least say "2 head gaskets?? Lower compression?"

if thats what you wanted to do, then look up Cometic, not 2 stock head gaskets

2 headgaskets= bad idea

a cometic head gasket will be a much better option.

If you want to lower compression. With head gaskets which is pointless and way expensive. You could get custom gaskets made you whatever thickness you need.
