Okay I got a cnc performance round head. My hang up is the squish is to tight.I check to make sure the piston is not hitting the plug or head. So it’s very hard to turn over with plug in. What’s the best thing to do? Another base gasket?
Sounds like you have higher compression. If there are no marks on the piston, you're probably good. Tape a piece of solder across the piston and turn it over and then measure the thickness of the solder.Okay I got a cnc performance round head.

i did that a couple weeks ago but i cant remember center of piston was 6 or 7 and the outside was the other 6 or 7 it should be closer to 10 I thought too.I was wondering as for long term use the best thing would be another base gasket? I also heard 2 head gaskets but im not in favor of that. I also think they make thicker head gaskets in the cooper or aluminium but dont know where to get them? Thanks chainlube.You can do that with the plug out.
buy the bgf 8mm gaskets if you want a lot of gasket. They are 8mm thick.i did that a couple weeks ago but i cant remember center of piston was 6 or 7 and the outside was the other 6 or 7 it should be closer to 10 I thought too.I was wondering as for long term use the best thing would be another base gasket?

I think they mean for 8mm studs. 8mm thick would be like 3 inches.buy the bgf 8mm gaskets if you want a lot of gasket. They are 8mm thick.

Another trick is to remove your head, put a thin sheet of modeling clay on the piston (don't touch cylinder walls with it) put the head back on, no gasket, and then turn it over slowly. Remove the head and check the clay for any marks made by the plug. If the clay is very thin where the plug is, then when you put the gasket on, it will be fine.i did that a couple weeks ago but i cant remember center of piston was 6 or 7 and the outside was the other 6 or 7 it should be closer to 10 I thought too.I was wondering as for long term use the best thing would be another base gasket?

No i bought them, they are 8mm ( mm not cm) thick. Lol. Ik ik weird, but true. It has a leather spacer between the copper, but they work.I think they mean for 8mm studs. 8mm thick would be like 3 inches.
