    brettloveday, wouldnt think you`d notice any improvement in performance from before the head gasket went to after, just keep an eye on oil/water temperatures getting it all timed up properly will get the best out of the engine
  13. ben16v
    ok, didnt mean youd done it to increase compression, just that it looks like the max amount of skimming but that wouldnt really affect the compression sorry to clog up the thread Brett :oops: what i was wondering is that would it be possible for skimming my head to have increased the power from my engine? or am i just lucky :lol:
  14. ben16v
    i take it that head HAS been skimmed?? certaintly doesnt look like a lot of room for error or enough to make any difference to the compression
  15. ben16v
    ok, for example, i had my head skimmed assuming with the valves still in as there was no mention of removal, the car had defo not overheated so i`m thinking minimal warping if any what would the outcome if CR was increaded due to skimming.. would you get a bigger bang and more power?? if that makes sense? only asking cos i`ve had good power runs on my standard engine (bar k&n and exhaust) and skimming is the only other thing thats happened to it ben

    will skimming a 16v head make any difference to compression etc? i paid 500ish for head gasket failure a while ago... if it were now i`d try it myself and just get someone more knowlegeable (sp?) to check over the timing etc after ben
