I think the procedure would be to establish the squish band and, based on that, decide how thick of a base gasket to use. It seems the factory sets them up a bit conservative (thick) and many here have gone to a single .3mm with good results. I think I even read that a single .15 was used but it carries the slight risk of not being thick enough to get a good seal.
