Mr. Gasket 1130 head gaskets?
I was browsing the advance auto website looking to MRG-5716's for me 383 and stumbled on these:

They say they have an .018"-.020" compressed thickness and are available but not stocked, at least nowhere near me. It's also confusing how they state if it'll work with aluminum heads or not. Anybody have more info on these and if they'll work on an aluminum head LT1?
I'm looking for the thinnest off the shelf head gasket for an LT1 that wont compromise reliability. That means bore AND thickness. I would use some felpro 1074's and open up the coolant holes in them, but I'm not sure what longterm effects that would have.
