I have no idea what those numbers even mean. I'm not doing this to increase/decrease my compression. I just want to know if taking more off the head will compromise it. I bought the car with a BHG and replaced it with a felpro gasket. I now have the engine out because I got the car totally repainted. I wanted to do a MHG since the engine was out and it was convenient. I shaved the block and gave it new bearings and rings. I just want to know how much more I can take off the head if I have .011 off of it already. Along with that, the block has .006 of an inch off. I bought a 1.4mm Titan MHG. Is everything still going to be ok if the machine shop takes off another .006 or so off the head?
