Default Cometic oversize cylinder heat gasket

Can someone tell me of the tork of an oversize 2 cylinder heat gasket the same as by a standard cylinder heat gasket?

Yes indeed thikness. I saw that Burton has an 070 (1.8mm) for sale. So if I put that one on and I use the standard bolts. Is the tork than the same as by a standard cylinder gasket?
