Default Drilling holes in MLS head gaskets ?

Was about to put my heads on and the gaskets doesn't fit on the outer head studs. I say the holes are 1/16 to small to fit over studs

Do i drill the outthe holes bigger ?

How Do i drill the MLS head gaskets with bigger holes?

Try pulling a couple studs, installing the gasket and then see if you can refit the studs without any drilling. My guess is there is just enough bowing in the studs to cause this.
