Which Head Gaskets?

I am down to picking a head gasket for my engine.

it is a stock bore 347 with -13 CC dish pistons, and LS6 heads, I'd like to keep the compression ratio at about 9.5 definitely no lower than 9.0. I will be running no more than 15 PSI of boost.

what brand and thickness of head gasket do you guys recommend? I have heard good things about the GM MLS gaskets. do not know all there is to know about what is on the market.

Thanks for the help.

Given its a stock LS1/6 motor...a stock GM MLS gasket kinda makes sense, and very cheap too.
