lower = shave head?
raise = thicker head gasket?


shaving some meat off your head will raise comp
thicker head gasket will lower compression

other ways to lower comp-
different pistons
grinding some meat out of the combustion chambers in the head
im assuming that by compression plate, he means a super thick head gasket sort of thing, made of steel or something?
never seen this done but dont see why it wouldnt work with a gasket on either side of it

exactly how much did you want to lower the compression, and why?
