Cylinder head dimensions

Gents

Can someone possibly help out, I would like to know the depth of a standard Weber head (1968)

I have a 1968 Super SE engine which should have 0.04” or 1mm skimmed off to give higher compression, The head is away to come off for decoke, new cams. And I would like to check to see if the head depth is correct.

But alas I don’t know size of standard head to reference from.

Regards
Jason
