#28750, "Thinner headgasket ?"


          


Hey Guys

Have you ever heard of a thinner headgasket that could raise the compression a little ?

I have a special project comming up and I could need such a thing to raise from a 0.5 up to 1.0 the compression

I was going to get a thinner gasket and go nitrous. I could not find one, although I found some various types of head gaskets through a couple of neon sights. One of them actually stated to be twice as thick at a stock gasket(for turbo app). But never did find a thinner one.
Alain you could always have the head milled...

off the subject...

Have you gotten any more orders for the t25 manifold lately? I have gotten a TON of emails about it. I have been directing them towards the 14b setup but a couple of them are quite ademant about having a t25....

I will have the head milled but I want to take compression from a potential 7.5:1 up to at least 8.8:1 just milling the head is not enought

And no not a single order for a manifold, actually not more than 2 emails for price inquiry, lots of talkers as usual ... but not many doers
but I'm not crazy about the ideas of selling more of those T-25 manifold either

Or can you just sent it to Kevin to have it modified and test fitted like him
It should cost you much less in shipping and you could be sure it will fit with the downpipe

Just an idea
