well i am using a head gasket from an 88 crx, it cost me about $15 dollars but its a composite gasket and should lower compression to about 9.0-9.1. however i was thinking of peeling apart a stock metal head gasket (3 layers) and use the 2 outer layers to place on top of and on the bottom of the crx gasket. This is what i plan on doing in a month or two. ive never heard of anyone doing this though, so it would be experimental. the great part is itll only cost a little bit of cash as opposed to the really expensive aftermarket head gaskets. if anyone has any input on this idea i would really love to hear your ideas.

this is on a d16y8 by the way, ive got all the fuel and supporting mods to use this gasket idea and push higher boost (except for the dam boost controller)

 

so nobody has any info to offer?
