The y8 hg is thinner than the stock one so it should raise compression. It's newer so it should be stonger. Also it was $22 at Majestic Honda. Just some reasons I chose it.

Now that I am changing my head gasket I was wondering if there was anything I need to know that the Haynes manual doesn't cover. It says to torque the bolts in two stages. I didn't know if that was enough or should I do three stages. If there is anything I should know I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!
