Default Raising Compression with Spoon Head Gasket
Ok, so I have been searching but I swear I can't find anything...so I'm sorry this is an age old question.

Are there any noticeable gains from getting the spoon head gasket?

thanks.

I would think so. Can it be run on an otherwise stock engine?

yes, but thinner headgaskets especially on b series motors will leak after awhile, but not sure on an s2k, they dont last as long as oem ones.

Is there a way to combat premature leakage?
