Hey im going to be doing a headgasket on my SR, I was wondering if i should get the head resurfaced? And would a 1.1mm headgasket be good for 18-20psi?

always get your head checked and decked (if needed) when you pull it to re-do the HG. gasket thickness will affect your compression ratio, but it shouldn't be too thick for 18-20 psi if you're referring to fears of it blowing out.
