I am partial to the SCI ICS titan...

The straightness and finish requirements are the same..

If you get a cometic get the cometic HP..

Thickness depends on your head CC, pistons and your desired compression ratio goal.

You can buy direct from Cometic. That's what I did.

Yes, if you get the cometic get the HP. The standard MLS ones aren't that good.
