Okay so I have it apart, looking at eliminating the base gasket and seeing if the transfer covers should be sealed with sealer as well as the oring seals.
As far as squish goes I've measured solder from front, back and both sided and it averages .031. I also measured the base gasket where it is crushed and where it was not crushed down by the cylinder head. Gaset measures .010 at where the bolts tie it down and about .013-.015 in the middle. Gasket measures .020 where it has not been crushed down by the cylinder or bolts.
