Default head gasket help

I am having trouble finding the right head gasket for the new engine that's about to be built
spec is
200 block with .5 forged pistons with valve cut outs
t34.63
14mm inlet spacer
reyland 01 inlet cam
adjustable pulleys
55lb siemans
I don't realy want to skim the head and deck the block because both seem fine


would a group A gasket be okat with standard head bolts
hoping for 400bhp


cheers

I'd use a group A gasket and std bolts.

A small turbo escos gasket will be ok too I'd have thought?
