Is the squish band area on the CDH cast cylinder head cut correct for the 49mm bore iron sleeve cylinder?

I didnt check. I bolted it to the 49mm cylinder kit using the supplied 49mm head gasket, and let it rock. I didnt mic the
gasket but it seemed thicker. Also my head has a ring that raised chamber a good bit. Thought about planning it off, but just ran with it. Saving my energies for the Minarelli. What I can say is how well the head cools. Park your bike and feel the head after half hour. The head will be still pretty hot while the rest of the engine has cooled dramatically.
The head is a great heat sink.
 
Thanks for info, I installed to check squish band with thick head gasket .057" & squish band was over 1mm, I then installed a thinner head gasket .028" & squish band is at .037" hopefully this is ok.
