This has been proven time and time again, best headgasket is always going to be OEM, unless your so overbored that you can't shave it.

Not really, Golden Eagle is now taking OEM Honda head gaskets and boring them out to match the bore of the cylinder IE 84.5mm Piston with an OEM 84.5 mm head gasket!
