Your goal is just too vague sir. You're attempting to reach a compression ratio of what in order to gain what?

Take a factory MLS gasket (three layers) and pop the rivits out that hold them together. Remove the top and bottom, use the middle, der you have it. Torque the same way. Poor mans thinner gasket. Works as well to stack them too, just not more than five is advisable.
