increasing compression ratio
4.00 bore
3.48 stroke
12cc dished piston
.25 below deck
.018 compressed steel shim gasket 67cc
67cc head chamber
=9.16:1
Can I use a different gasket to increase the comp. ratio?

Assuming you meant .025" in the hole, you don't have much, if any room to reduce quench below that very desirable .043" you're at now. Simplest method to increase your CR would be milling your heads.
