Depending on the brand of heads and rollers you are using they will clear without anything other than thick gaskets. Some applications will require aluminum spacers or double thick gaskets.
I am using World Products heads and Crower stainless rollers and have no problem with clearance, I use 5/16 thick Felpro cork/lam gasket. Each application is a little different. These take a good bit of time to make them nice.
