Who makes the best head gasket? How many layers are in a honda oem head gasket?
 
OEM honda headgaskets are always the best for hondas. If you're trying to lower compression Cometic makes head gaskets for that. But if you're just looking for a head gasket that will seal tight, than look no further than your local honda dealer.
 
if you want to raise compression get pistons, taking a layer out of the oe gasket will raise it by roughly .1-.2 compression points. Not worth it at all, I did it and my headgasket blew out after 20k, go figure and learn from others mistakes also.
 
well if u really looking to get more compression and like to try thinner gaskets and got the money

Spoon makes a 2 layer gasket for the Vtec blocks

and of course Mugen does too but it is one layer I believe for the Vtec blocks

Sorry us Ls/Vtec's need to custom our shit

these are the other companies beside
Cometic
 
I would rather mill the head than run a thinner headgasket.

That way you don't have to worry about blowing it.

With milling you can easy add another .5 safely (by removing .03")
