Hi guys, I have a pd130 asz engine and also have an awx engine they both originally have a 3 holed gasket and was thinking is it a good idea to use a thinner 2 holed gasket or am I best to stick with 3 holed? i'm looking to add more ponies. will I squeeze more out of extra compression or will piston meet valves?

Welcome on your return to the forum.

Someone that has not a red nose and big flappy shoes & a car that falls apart will be along to help maybe.

Neither, it will just run worse, it's a diesel, not a petrol remember.
