Default What Decompression plate for zetec turbo?

In the process of getting bits together to do a 2.0l zetec conversion. I think i'm prorbably goin to do it the cheap way, via decompression plate. Jus need advice on wat type of plate i should go for:-


-Stainless Steel or Aluminium plate?

Thickness.. -2mm, 2.5mm or 3mm?? is it a case of the thicker the better?

*I don't want to have 2 headgaskets.

Been doin a lil research on varius websites etc...Looked into getting some vauxhall mahle pistons (c20let). Are these pistons always the forged type? any advice wud be gr8, thanks.
