I stacked two Fel-Pro 1017 gaskets on a boat racer's cobbled together engine in a last minute effort to get him to a race. I used Copper Coat between the gaskets. Retorqued the heads three times after warming and cooling cylces. Probably 12.5 compression. Aluminum heads, iron block. He ran it four races with no issues. Just For Information.
