Anyone know (or can measure) the thickness of the standard R1 head gasket?

Both crushed and uncrushed would be useful.

I have a used one I could measure but I'm not going to be able to do that for a couple of weeks.

FYI trying to work out compression drop from fitting a McXpress 1.7mm one (need to find out whether thats crushed or uncrushed thickness too).

Just braved the cold and measured my old 4XV gasket 0.8mm crushed.
