With the cometics you can get what ever bore size and thickness you want. You just have to figure out what compression and quench hight your after.

Commetic gaskets are great but you need to install them right! They require the surfaces to be done to a certain finish in order to seal properly ( Don't have the info handy ). Make sure you have the machine shop finish the block deck and heads properly or they will leak! Some people still have had issues, I take the gaskets apart and spray them with copper coat.
