The rings can keep the manifold from fitting snug against the gasket if they bottom out in the counterbore. You might need to deepen that cut a little with a hole saw in a drill press, or even some careful work with a carbide burr in a die grinder. The rings don't actually do any sealing- - - -they just keep the manifold aligned with the cylinder head intake ports. I like to make up three individual adapters for the intake ports from aluminum conduit and flat bar stock, and use three Keihin side draft carbs for a Harley Davidson EVO engine. www.ebay.com/itm/406936508134?Jerry
