Default Milled Head...choices?

The head on my Integra Ls has recived a p&p job from KG, at the same time i guess the head was milled a great amount. My guess is either .040 or more. Its causing alot of problems, and one recomendation i got was to purchase a thick cometic head gasket to make up for the job, or possibly buy a bare ls head and have my internals transfered over. My question to you all is, which would you recomend and anyone know what size head gasket is recomended and where i could possibly get it.

Also, id like to ask without starting a new thread, for my ls i have a walbro 255 fuel pump, but thats it just the pump. I see people selling walbro "kits", is there anything i would need in adition to the fuel pump to install it, or is the pump alone fine?

thank you.

for the pump you might need a fuel pump filter kit.. which really any place that sells fuel pumps can get you.

Why was the head milled so much?

ill check on the fuel pump kit at a local auto store

as for the head, i purchased the car off a former h-t member, so... i guess i didnt do my research to well, and im paying for it now
But id really like to avoid that whole subject and just see what my options are on getting this to running properly, the sooner it runs better, the closer i am to putting on my turbo setup.
