    Is it .039 compressed and .060 non-compressed? I believe I read that somewhere.

    think about it for a minute......if we placed a 1000lb block of steel on your head would it retain its dimensions? :)

    Well per searching on fchat, I have found .055. Wiseco pistons on the other hand has .039 as the compressed number for a stock gasket. Thus my confusion
