Default Bored sohc motor, what headgasket to use now???

Hey all u FI freaks

i just finished up my block, d16z6, and i just blew up my headgasket in my car right now. its another z6. it got me thinking, if i bored my motor to .020, will the stock headgasket not fit any more???

If so, what oem headgasket do i use? or should i go aftermarket?

its my first motor im building so spare me the n00b bs....

Plenty of clearance.

Cure for bored blocks: You should talk to it once in a while. Maybe take it out to a movie and dinner.
