You could put a little RTV blue or clear around the ports and at the ends. Another good sealer for around the ports is Gaskecinch marketed through Edelbrock and sold at Mancini - I use that **** on everything as the old lady in the Frank's hot sauce commercial says....

ever seen that mr. gasket spray ****? sprays on for additional sealing. looks like it might just be a silicone spray.

I just use a pan that doesn't interfere with gaskets.
............Never use sealers around the ports, thats just a band aid .............kim.......

I know I'm right....
They sell paper thin gaskets that are supposed to be used with the stamped bathtub gaskets after they are compressed. Never tried them but that is what someone told me they were for, Use discretion.

I couldn't get all the intake bolts in when I used those gaskets. Ended up just using the stamped bathtub one with a little RTV along the front and rear edges, nothing on the head sides.
