^^Seriously serious. Ignore this, and shite will not fit (ie, exhaust mani, turbo bracket).

If the head is under the wear limit, you can make up for it (within reason) with a thicker gasket. If you take the wear limit and add the .051" standard gasket thickness, that is the true minimum figure you need to shoot for. The 5-layer Cometic gaskets come in the following increments:
.060" .066" .070" .075" .080" .086" .092" .098" and .120"
The .120" gasket is expen$ive at $220; the other 5-layer versions are $132, while the .051" and smaller 3-layer versions are $95.
