Once that was determined, I used guide pins and Indian Head to cement the "final" gaskets to the faces of the banjo casting. When the Indian Head dried, I used a utility knife with a new blade to trim the ID of the gaskets to the ID of the banjo casting.
Who manufactured the gaskets? Were they from BEST???
