I was told to start a new thread on this one.
I want to remove the head gasket from my 1.7. Can I remove the head gasket and still use the stock base gasket? I know there are replacement base gaskets to bring it back to stock compression but, will leaving the stock base gasket raise the compression too much? I can't find the link to the calculator to look this up. Sorry if it seems like I'm (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dead horse.gif) but thanks for the info |

The only validity that one should need is the bulletin that VW relseased on the subject.
To date this is the only thing that the Cap'n and I have dis-agreed on! He has his reasons and I have mine, both based on experience and "issues". |
