Felpro Head Gaskets

I have new pairs of both Felpro 8171PT-1 and 8506PT. I have been unable to find the compressed thickness of either of these head gaskets, however. I called summit racing and the guy said they might be 0.041" each but he was just guessing. Anybody know the compressed thickness of these particular gaskets? Is there any way to measure the compressed thickness? Thanks!
