Default ZZ4 head gasket

Has anyone used thinner head gaskets on the ZZ4 when using different heads like the fast burns ? OEM are 51 compressed

Fel-Pro 1094 .015 compressed thickness or the Victor Reinz 5746 .026 thickness.Quench of .040-.045 is desirable.I will be replacing my head gasket with a 1094 when I do my roller cam swap.Looking to increase C/R and improve the quench-squish....

Thanks for reply, my concern was using a thinner gasket causing valve to piston issues.
