to be fair,
if you use blue thread locker on the pan screws no matter what gasket you use ,
the bolts should stay where you put them.

Another option is to use some Drei Bond on the bolts. This both seals against the oil seepage and tends to bind the bolts in position.

I spent an entire year having prototypes made, using a mare modern gasket material, until I perfected the hole pattern to ensure a perfect fit of my gasket.

I didn't do that because the factory cork gasket worked well!

Since this thread is so old, it is worth mentioning that Roger no longer sells our gasket, but sells one he had made, after we quit doing business with him.

To get our perfect fitting gasket, you need to call us directly.

Bonjour Greg,
For sure I would like to get your gasket. Your advises have been so important to help me reworking my engine with no major issue so far after 2000km (1250 miles). I only have this oil leak trough the clutch hole...
I will be in the US next week in Washington area. But for only few days. too short to organize a shipment. Next time I come back in your country for more days I will contact you to get one.
Maybe next time I go to San Diego (I usually land in LA) I will be able to visit you in your shop?
Cheers,
Raphaël
