Hi all ka24de engine so not popular in the UK. I am having to have the block decked and also head skim as going MLS gasket. The pistons are deep dished 7.5 CR at standard deck and head thickness. Got various options avaialble for the new HG thickness as going cometic. How do I go about selecting best gasket thickness for best quench. Head has been skimmed multiple times before (blame previous owner). Block had been decked before but very poorly leaving a finish that looked like a file. Assume this was done when the forged pistons and rods were installed as I think the new pistons wrist pin was offset by design. Want to try and get it right this time :-)
