Default Head Gasket Opinion Please

Would I be better off running GM (02) gaskets or go with 0.040 Cometic? Pros and Cons. I am installing GMPP Z heads 65cc

I'm not familiar with the Z heads, but I'm getting .045 Cometic for what it's worth.

This one

The ICS Titan head gasket was installed without sealants, o-rings or
receiver grooves. Pressure transducers were mounted at the gasket and data sampling occurred at a rate of 120 times per second to confirm that there were no coolant or combustion leaks at any point in the tests.

A closer look at the numbers shows that the new ICS Titan head gasket sealed over 6.4 hp/cubic inch at an estimated 3300 psi cylinder pressure. We were as pleased with the performance of the new head gasket as we were impressed with the colossal horsepower of Kenny's "little" engine.
