    it has alot to do with the volume of the head if your is .017 to .020 thick gasket and if the new ones are .034 to .040 then your would cut .017 to .020 off to be the at same place but this will chang the cc a bit .the head would be were it was on the block with old heads gaskets . best way to go is cc the head when on the mill to know how much you have and what a cut is in cc .to many thing s can change thing . you can cut off .060 off but you will have to check the intake for fit and may need to be cut. valves hitting the pistons will need to be check to. you will need to find out the the cc of the old head gasket the cc of the new gaskets and the cc of the head and go from there and the cc of the piston at tdc
