can custom-make solid copper gaskets up to .080" thick, and you can then add
a stock gasket on either side of that for a total of .200" (compressed).  If
you need more than that, contact Ken Gillanders at British Frame and Engine

He may have (or know where to get) some of the old "low compression" plates.

NFI, etc.
