Fast question: How thick are the Reinz, Goetze and Spesso gaskets? I have new Corteco and Payen gaskets here and their thickensses are 1.75mm and 1.85mm uninstalled. I also have used Payen which is 1.75mm, which was too high for my engine.. Maybe it would be 1.7mm as installed, so maybe Corteco would be 1.6mm then?
Navalinea gasket is 1.6mm, but the optimal would be 1.4-1.5mm in this case.

The gasket is already at 1.4mm before compressing. Probably it's around 1.3mm when on use. Looks good
