Re: Head job ??????????
Bob, I think you'll have to resort to a "hand job" if you want some of those sizes

Re: Head job ??????????
Gotta watch the recess in the top of the cylinder if your heading this way.....but it can be changed. Watch the plug to piston clearance.

Instead of a thinner gasket, why not just machine the top of the cylinder to drop the head down ? Certainly easier than "hand jobbing" a thin gasket.
As for the spark plug, a retracted tip type plug does not protrude below the flat surface of the head like a projected tip model does.
