I believe Cometic does, but they are a custom order. Try calling some sponsors like Rapid or SDPC. Just curious why you would go with that thickness; I went with 0.040 for my 402. What compression are you after?

when i built the motor i used mahle pistons with a 12 cc dish.
They didnt tell me that they where going to be in the hole .10.
so with my old heads that where 66cc and stock gasket it made my compression like 10.0. So i ordered new set of heads 59cc and going with a .30 gasket to put me at about 11.4. thinnking with this set up my quench height will be where i need it

Must be something with the Mahle piston comp height. I have the same pistons on a 402 ls2 aluminum block. Mine are in the hole .005. It is hard to get the compression with the 12 cc dish. Rather than deck the block I went with .027 cometic. It raises comp more than milling and helps the quench out. My crank and rods are Eagle and they checked out ok.
