Default Tubo HG on NA motor

My 84 suffers from exhaust valve and piston introduction so I got the head pulled the other day and noticed the PO put a Turbo HG on my NA motor. I have to order a upper gasket kit and I wonder should I get another Turbo HG or just get the NA version? I thought the turbo gasket was a bit thicker? Is it that it is a more heavier duty gasket?

I am pretty sure the n/a headgasket is NLA, superceeded to the turbo head gasket. Atleast that is what is included in all of the headgasket sets now days for the n/a.

Jon is correct. The Turbo HG version is the standard now, NA or not.
