unless you go drastically towards one extreme or the other (and even then...), i don't think hg thickness will change your compression enough to worry about.

fair enough, I was just saying that the gasket itself shouldn't change anything much, assuming that the head and block haven't had the shit milled out of them.
I just got a stock hg from Don he had lying around without even giving much thought to my compression. The head was only milled a few thou. and given the amount of (or lack of) power I'll be pushing I didn't even consider it to be an issue.

dont weld your gas tank unless you clean it out properly... or risk blowing yourself up.. which might be cool, but only if you get it on video

i've got an act clutch in mine, i don't know what one though.
It's very stretable, harder than stock. It was in the car when i bought it it it works great for me.
Is the act a lighter flywheel? i've been thinking about lightening the drivetrain, does anyone make driveshafts for the mk3?
