Default cometic headgaskets fit?

Has any one has problems installing the Cometic MLS headgaskets? It seems to me the Alignment holes are a smidge too narrow to fit.

I remember the dowel pin holes were definitely snug on my block, but an appropriately sized socket and a rubber mallet were all I needed to get them to fit.

I called their tech line to make them aware of the issue. I needed to have them ready much sooner than they could adjust them, so I filed the holes to be a little wider. Hopefully they take the issue seriously and fix it for the future customers.
