Your valve cover gasket just keeps the oil in the head. It really doesnt have anything to do with compression or engine performance. As for HEAD gaskets you would probably FUBAR your motor. Everything internal is measured and made precise for a reason. You may want a second opinion on this but I am sure that it wouldn't be a good idea.
