That sounds like a very comprehensive design. Are you going to add a
microwave and a toilet? I think you are going to have a hard time finding
asbestos unless someone has 60's vintage stock. If you don't think the
fiberglass gasketing can take the heat will a ceramic based refractory
cement work. I know they are expensive but McMaster Carr handles the latter
up to 3000°F rating in smallish quantities.

How about using Durablanket or Kaowool? You should be able to smush it
down into something flat and gasket like.

There is ceramic fiber paper (1/16" thick) available from amost any 
distributer of ceramic fiber products it is designed for use as a gasket 
material.
