I strongly recommend that you check the piston deck height (distance from the block decks where the heads bolt on to the crown of the piston) before you go any farther. Blueprint PDH is 0.025", which when added to the compressed thickness of the gasket, 0.028", would make a squish of 0.053". Personally, I would not button up a motor with this squish measurement. I'd do it properly by measuring the stack of parts and cutting the block decks to zero so that when using a Fel-Pro 1003, I'd have a squish of 0.041", or if I was in a position of not knowing the fuel quality I could buy later, I would cut the block decks so that the crown of the piston popped up out of the block by 0.006", then use the 1003 for a squish of 0.035".
