Just out of curiosity why you would want a JDM head gasket??

If you've got the head off why not get the spoon or mugen gasket!

Because if you run toda cams with the spoon/mugen gasket the valves might hit the pistons.

Are you sure there is a difference in head gaskets? I'm running a JDM engine and the only differences I know of are the pistons and the elimination of the VTEC oil pressure signal (and the engine code of course ).

compression is raised to 11.3:1 by increasing the dome on the top of the piston
i am not sure about the gasket though

spoon gasket is slightly thinner
i am not sure if they have a "normal" gasket
