I found out that mine has been shaved .050" so now I'm in looking for a .050 "head Saver" shim, I would think that Fel-Pro makes one. In the morning I will measure the block.

You can get blank shim metal of different thicknesses from Wholesale Tool. Re: Head Thickness?

That seems like alot since your average head milling is about .010. Why so much?
