I'm having the engine from my 1967 123GT rebuilt for the first time (aprox. 140K miles) I'll be installing the IPD Street Performance cam kit. The machine shop thinks .020" overbore and very light machining of head are required. I'm installing pistons of the same height and face profile, and would like to end with a compression ration of around 9.5-1 (down from 10-1). I'm looking for recommendations for gasket thickness and source.
