Tim,
It's a 59 261 .060 oversize with a Howards m4f cam, been running it for 10 yrs. Just cleaned up engine, and when putting it back together got frustrated trying to hold the intake and two fenton headers and the exhuast gaskets all together with one hand. While trying to put bolts and clamps on with the other. yes the alignment rings are on the engine.
Just seems like it would be simpler to have a one piece gasket that would be held up with the two end studs/posts.
