Re: HKS head gasket?

I reused it once with no trouble, but a third time wouldnt have been pretty, it was beat up. The rubber around the cylinders had deteriorated.

1g is 7.8:1, 2g is 8.5:1

And yes, the CR drops with a thicker gasket because there is more room for the air when the piston is up. Displacement is the same, so the air pulled in is the same. But more space means its less compressed.
