monotorque head gasket compressed thickness?
Turbo Mini Forums

As above anyone measured it or read some place what it is?
believe it should be 80% of starting thickness so the acl web page says? ie 1mm starting will be .8mm compressed.

if it makes any difference its small bore and ARP studs to rated torque with there lube

rather not use a fresh gasket just to find this out then bin it.. how ever if it comes to it ill do it so other could use if they want

was thinking if no one knows someone might be kind and stick some feeler gauges between there block n head if there is any free space not fulled with gasket?
probably the next best thing to a dial indicator mounted up whilst it got torqued down.
