Default Head Gasket?

Im doing a LQ9 408 build with LS3 heads and I have a set of LS3 GM head gaskets .051" . I have recently decided to boost it and I am looking to change to a thicker head gasket and I need some help finding the correct aftermarket gasket. Any suggestions?

We offer a Cometic 4.085" bore gasket with .060" compressed thickness that would fit your wants. They are $139.99 plus shipping.

Bore size is the main difference between gaskets....there are a few variations in the rest of the cuts for LS7 blocks for example, where the water jackets are in slightly different locations.
