If not I would put the one gasket you have on and check it. Then ride
I don't know what it was, and to be honest i really don't want to mess with it at the moment. Squish is a mod that i'll do at a later point, for my skill it shouldn't make any difference if i have the "perfect" squish set or not. The bike is plenty enough for me as it was, and to get the head machined now it will set me back another 2 weeks at least + i do not have the skills to properly jet the bike after. Plus messing with the squish also means messing with the timings and compression, and if you don't get that right you can be in a world of trouble. Even if you get it right, you still have to be careful what fuel you put in, etc. ... i don't race and as i said my riding skills will not notice the difference.

How about i go and use the old gaskets ? They were in pretty good shape.
