Cylinder head
Hi just had my head skimmed on my supercharger with 3 thou taken off and I am planning to fit a new Toyota gasket.
Is that OK or should I fit a thicker gasket?

Re: Cylinder head
Skim will affect your compression.
So you need to work out what it is now from the head skim.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

Re: Cylinder head
I would say 3 thou is not going to make a big difference so just use a stock head gasket.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
