If I don't fit any gasket at the top of the cylinders (which is what every expert suggests) will this affect the type/thickness of shim used at the bottom or is the increase in compression so marginal that standard shims can be used?

This is for a all standard 1,7 D-jet engine rebuild.

Lars, have you planned your engine build? i.e. compression ratio desired? If so, we need those numbers first to help. This may be all you need... http://www.aircooledtech.com/calculating_cr/
....but back to your question. Yes you will raise your compression ratio.
