Am building a 400 pulling motor bored and stroked, and using a composition head gasket from Lubbock Gasket. Getting ready to have the block and head machined. What is the correct surface finish or RA [roughness average] for this gasket for optimum sealing?

Just wondering what bore, stroke, type of pistons, how much compression, etc. that you ended up with. Have been thinking of doing some of the same things to my 400. Thanks.
