Depends on what you want your compression ratio to be. How many pounds are you boosting? Oh and I've heard really shitty things about cosmetic headgaskets. They have a tendency to crap out really easily.

Those numbers that you show are for the bore of your motor. If its stock then i believe you need to get 75mm.

Cosmetic have a habbit of cracking when in race form. Daily driven they shouldnt be to bad. I would just go with OEM.
