a thicker, properly constructed head gasket will work fine, but in a boosted application will become an even weaker link than it already is. just make sure your head studs are up to the task.

Cometic makes a decent headgasket, so rIdeal isnt your only avenue.
to further add a measure of safety, retard the timing with an MSD BTM... static compression isnt nearly as important as dynamic compression as long as static isnt too high to control.
