    rightio didnt realy know the proper name for the title but anyways
    I have a long stroke crank in my engine and have opend up the trasfer feeds alot. I think maybe too much as i only have 1mm for the gasket to sit on the cylinder spacer due to it being diff from my other bgm spacer.
    All i need to know is will the gasket hold out or should i somehow add more material with magic metal etc to help it seal.
    Also i was thinking of putting some instant gasket or something simaler around the base im not sure if that will work right tho
    Any help on the subject would be brill
