Default 3.905 Gaskets?

Which are the proper gaskets for a 3.905 bore? I've read numerous threads and got different answers. I've read that the GM MLS gaskets will be fine but others say that if your going with a factory gasket you should go with a 6.0 head gasket. How thick are the 6.0 gaskets compressed? Will they work on a 98 LS1 with a 3.905 bore? If not which cometic gaskets do I go with, the 3.905 bore or the 3.910 bore?

I think the 12498544 number is the only GM MLS gasket available. I don't think there is a 6.0l specific MLS gasket available.
