O-ringed Block + Head Combo

Anyone know what the max head bore that can be used on 4.045 o-ringed block?

I was going to use a set of 4.125 bore heads and wanted to know if there would be enough contact area between the blocks o-ring and the head gasket (4.125) to cut a receiver grove in.

What's the width of the O ring groove and what's the groove's center dia? I don't think there's one specific setup due to differing types of head gaskets.

Yes I could but but it'll be a long wait. I've got my hands full right now with a number of projects. What's your schedule?
