Maybe S3 ? or have a stock head machined into a high compression head.

Try about an .008 to .010 thinner base gsk. But just to be safe, ck the comp. ratio before running.

Unfortunately , that will not work here as the base gasket is nil and the head is o-ringed. I would guess that anything past .001-2 taken off the head surface on a platter or mill would also require the re-cutting of the o-ring grooves deeper to compensate. The squish band here is already narrow. Not much to play with.

Ring up Paxau! He knows something! :mellow:
