Default Head Gaskets?

I'm getting my heads milled next week .030. I have a 5.3 that im putting in my silvy. Someone was saying use thinner head gaskets. Could i jus put factory head gaskets or should i do different. Who else sells them for a good price?

thanks

If your getting your heads done, run a stock gasket.. You run a thinner then stock gasket, your comp goes up more...
