Copper Headgasket

[Alexander van Gerbig]

    Thinking about using a copper headgasket to lower compression for my
turbo project.  I know that some folks will scoff at the whole lowering
compression via a gasket, but I am wondering about how these copper gaskets
work.  Anyone use them before without having the block o-ringed?
Headgasket.com says that the block doesn't need to be o-ringed, but they
recommend using a coolant "stop-leak" after installation.  Anyone have the
scoop?

Thanks!
