Head question??
My 3 dr head is now at the machine shop being checked over, whats the lowest measurement i can go too on it skim wise before it's too far gone???
would this matter if i plan to fit a wrc metal gasket to make the compression ratio back to standard, as in could i skim past the lowest level then add the multi layer wrc to increase the gap again???
in advance thanks Tabetha lol

139.2mm was the thickness from factory.
most people think the head becomes too thin or alters the comp ratio, but the biggest problem is the area around the valve seats which becomes too thin the more you skim.
