Do you know the history of the block i.e has it been decked before?

Hmm I'm running OEM gaskets in it atm so I'm assuming 0.7mm

I Bought the car with 72000km on it back in 2010, it only had basic bolt on mods, the previous owner is a friend of mine and he says that it has not had any engine work done on it in the past...

I'll have to ask the machine shop how much they took off the blocks and go from there I guess...
