[A2 VW]

Does a thicker headgasket increase or decrease compression ratio? I'm thinking since it's gonna be taller, it's gonna increase stroke and increase cr. Someone tell me if I am right and if not, let me know. Thanks.

decreases. You would not want to decrease the g60 comp ratio

A thicker one decreases the cr, because there is more volume in the combustion chamers and therefore less pressure.
