Anyone use 84mm gasket on 86mm bore?

Im just curious of has anyone done this? I checked piston to deck height and its about .006 from the deck, with thermal expansion that means that the piston would probably hit the gasket at high RPM's or at operating temps. Input please..

Why? Just buy the right gasket. Is the chance of a failure worth $100.00.
