Default Spoon Head Gasket on an AP2

Says it's for an AP1, any reason it wouldn't work on an AP2?

The AP2 is 11.1:1 compression and the AP1 is 11.0:1 The spoon thinner headgasket may allow contact between the valves and pistons or cause the compression ratio to be too high.

I guess I would be more concerned with the valve contact issue since the JDM AP1 runs at 11.7:1.

If anyone has done the head gasket mod on an AP2 please post here...

I emailed Spoon and they said the gasket is fine for an AP2.
