Default is it safe?

is it to stack two honda oem head gasket together in order to lower compression? will it make the compression too low?

i would be less worried about the compression being to low, and more worried about there now being twice (if not more) chance of the head gasket failing. i know people have done it, and it's worked good for them... but i'd just seek out a thicker head gasket. the ZC is supposed to be thicker, and stronger than stock, just a thought.
