I've heard you have to shave 1mm off each side to get them to fit the connecting rods, plus I'm not really trying to go into my block at this point. Probably just going to go with a .030 cometic. Not too into milling the head too much either, I'm receiving a head that has recently been port&...

That's what I figured. Doesn't seem to be the best idea, I've just been seeing it a lot more lately & was wondering if there was a way to make it any safer. Think I'm just going to stick with a thiner cometic gasket & just be content with the extra little bump from the cams & a tune.

If I were to try to use just one layer of the oem gasket, which layer would you reccomend?

Yeah, I meant sticking with the P30 pistons. I think they should clear. I did a build on zealautowerks.com (I know this is a estimated calculation) & it came up wit a piston to deck height of .022" & 11:1 cr with a .009" head gasket. I was wanting to know which gasket & which layer to use. I...

Thanks or the response. I'm not really trying to go up to 9k, just making sure that the valve train holds up, kinda overbuilding so I don't run into valve float/piston slap. & realistically probably going to keep the rpm's in the low to mid 8's. According to zealautowerks.com (& I know this is a...

I am currently running a stock JDM B16A3 & am going to be swapping the IM, TB, & head to a JDM ITR set up with Portflow titanium retainers, Portflow stiffened inner valve springs, ITR intake outer valve springs all the way around, & CTR cams. Probably a bit over built for how I intend on...

After some further research, think I might just go with a single layer head gasket. I've heard that you can run just one of the oem layers, just not sure which one would be best. Will this be sufficient/ reliable? Not trying to have any leaks or be replacing head gaskets every 40K.

Saw your #'s on another post. Congrats! I was wondering how that single layer gasket was holding up. I'm also running a jdm b16 & getting ready to install an itr head with ctr cams. I figured that since the head was going to be off, why not raise the compression a bit. I'm shooting for 11.1:1 &...

I'm currently running a stock JDM B16A3 long block and am starting a rebuild. I have B16A head with an ITR valve train and CTR camshafts. Since I'm going to have it apart, I was considering going ahead and swapping the P30(JDM B16A) pistons with the PCT(JDM B16B)ones. I also plan on using an OEM...
