Ditch the cometic gasket and get a vet OEM metal head gasket. Better quality

Tbh I am not a huge fan of that turbo to cam match. What housing is the the 0.86? However those cams are begging for high comp. You will really want the bigger housing on the turbo for it to match. With the smaller housing you might run into det problems with the 10:1 pistons. In saying that, if you have the smaller housing I would either change turbo or cams.

With the larger housing the setup might work with high comp well. I would get gears for those cams and have a play to get boost on early.
