I believe the Felpro's are 4.410 bore size. Can I use a 4.500 gasket like the Mr Gasket MLS, I need to keep the .040 thickness for quench, would this work in your opinion?

Their compressed volume will be slightly more than the other gasket but not enough to make a noticeable difference in performance IMO. Maybe someone else will chime in with another option for ya
