Yes due to head being skimmed , I think I am having a battle of wits with a unarmed opponent

We are talking about alloy head, when a head is skimmed it is very minimal ,only enough to true the face,you also get a thicker head gasket in relation to how much it was machined off to true it up.

I think you should always skim ,it is the professional way to do it ,they are only making sure your head is true,(flat) and get it pressure tested for cracks internally .
