my cylinder bore is 44mm and my head gasket bore is 46mm. Will the 2 mm difference make a difference on performance???

Sorry bit confused on the dimensions you have given, stock bore is 83mm dia (3.267 inch)yours are 44mm (1.732 inch) even if you stated this as the radius and not the diameter, your dimensions don’t add up. What are you using to measure this ?

Ok! just measured a stock head gasket it measures 85 mm diameter, assuming you mean your gasket measures 86 mm dia I wouldn’t have though the extra combustion chamber area you have gained wouldn’t make any difference. The same could apply to a skimmed head or block or a thicker gasket, providing it isn’t a excessive amount.
