Hello,
I have a 90 LX 5.0. Long story short, the Trick Flow Aluminum heads were ported and flow a ton of air. Bad news is I took my exhaust gaskets up to them and they are too small now. There is not much room for trimming them wider. They fit the height but the width is now 5mm too large and the gasket is too small. Should I just put them on anyways or try to trim as much off as I can? I do NOT want any leaks though. i am kind of perplexed because the largest gasket I can find is only 1 1/4" wide. I need about an 1 1/2" or 35mm
Any suggestions?
