Follow your dads advice. Sorry, can't help you with the torque.

.02 is not going to make that big of a difference, people have gone as much as .035 (some have gone even further) without rechambering the head. Yes do use a new gasket, and the torque specs are 20 ft/lbs.

Always use a new gasket no matter what.
