.029 gasket help

To get the quench right on my hotrod I need the Impala .029 gasket. I ordered it special order from a dealership and it came in as a .039 instead.

Anyone know the correct part number or how to get a .029 gasket??

When I bought mine I ordered it for a 96 impala SS engine code P. The .029s came in no problem. I have the packages for them at home, I'll get the #s at lunch.

Thanks! It turns out I'm crying wolf for the wrong reason.

I measured the gasket as .037 thinking it was a .039 gasket. Turns out the .037 compresses down to .029. Ok... so I had too much fun in college.

Now.... I hear Mr. Gasket makes a .019 gasket. That would make my quench perfect. Anyone know the skinny on that?
