How does this gasket set handle imperfect sealing surfaces?

• Proprietary cork-rubber compound adapts to surface variations.
• High conformability reduces dependence on flawless mating surfaces.
• Designed specifically for real-world engine repair environments.

• Sold as a complete repair set unless otherwise noted in product listing.
• Reduces the chance of missing a component during reassembly.
