Default 96 to 103 big bore

Im starting my mild engine build soon. My Harley big bore kit cam in yesterday. I already have Andrews 48 cams installed and I’m going with compression releases. Should I use a thinner head gasket or just use one that comes with the kit? Any one else running that cam in a 103 and I do have a 2 in 1 and power vision tuner

Great cam, and probably, the Most favored cam, for a 103". What will your compression be set at?
