From what I have read on their website, you have two options.

-Copper headgasket, only up to a certain thickness.
-Decompression plate, thicker than H/G, but then you need a "normal" i.e. non-copper head gasket to go with.

Their copper headgasket has fire rings (or something else) machined in it, so they can't make it too thick.
