Default YB head gasket valve to piston clearance question

Hi, i have a yb head measuring 137.5 and was wondering if a 2mm cometic head gasket would be ok for the valve clearance or should i go pocketed pistons along with thicker gasket? im just a bit concerned about CR etc, any advice & help would be massively appreciated. Thanks!

My advice to you mate is have the Pistons pocketed and if your ring Martin Hadland he can do the the Pistons and advise you at the same time
