Head Gasket ?

Anyone know the actual thickness of the aftermarket head gaskets. There are several brands out there but no tells compressed height. I'm trying to find a .040 head gasket that doesn't cost a $100 each.

usually the felpros run .038 to .040 if you check on summit racing it should tell you and you should be able to pick it by compressed thickness if not call them they should be able to let you know
