B18C Head Gasket Question
Hi,
Does anyone know the stock thickness on a B18C ITR head gasket. 98+ Spec ITR.
And can anyone give me a general idea on how much it will cost to have the block & head machined before re-installing the head gasket?

you just need the head milled the block should be fine and it usually cost less than 100 bucks
and any b18 head gasket will do

Hmm. I was concerned about compression. I see gasket kits that are pretty cheap, and then I also see gaskets that come in different thicknesses. So I was thinking if I can get the stock thickness, and then add on however much metal is lost through the milling process I can preserve my compression. I am weary about using the cheaper gaskets. I would really like to plan on taking the head off once in this motor's life 
So I am going to go with a more expensive performance head gasket.
