Me, I had my buddys shop weld up the notchs so we could get a perfect seal. My stock 806's need to have this done to get a proper seal. Theres a reason 97-98 graphite LS1 head gaskets are side specific. Each side is cut for the notch
Running them without welding up the notches will result in coolant seeping out from the notchs when you push it...
