Not enough information.

Zero deck? Out by .005 or more?...........in by .010? Need to know the deck.

What thickness head gasket is being used?

"roughly"

I like this calculator because it takes in consideration either a positive or negative deck height.

BTW - HKE should still have the build sheet on file if it was a recent build. I would call HKE with the previous owners name and approximate purchase date to get the specs.
