Simply email Jamie at Fuel Moto:

That way you get it from the horse's mouth.

.030" MLS as far as I know. That would be optimal regardless.

I just spoke with Keith today and that was one of the questions I asked. I was told that, yes, they supply the kit with Cometic .030 MLS gaskets. And, FWIW, they also shoot for .025 piston to cylinder wall clearance with the CP pistons.

I think you meant .0025" piston to wall clearance. i.e. Two point five thousanths.

LOL Those damned decimal points get me every time. Of course I meant .0025". Boy, that would have been one noisy SOB with the pistons set up that loose. (if it ran at all)
