[Vwdiesel] Head gasket thickness & compression levels

[travis gottschalk]

Question for the forum. Lets say you decided to not measure the amount your piston protrudes out of your block and you just go with the thickest head gasket. Now if the engine truely could have ran on the thinnest head gasket then what would the compression difference be between the two. Also What is the ideal compression for the vw to run the most efficient? I have heard a few different stories and tdiclub.com there is any argument going on the head gasket thing and the best compression thing. I was told that the vw has higher compression for starting reasons but a lower compression is more efficeint.
