Yeah that is exactly how I do it but these 7qt CANTON pans can be tricky to get to seal, I am using the 4 piece gasket as specified by Canton, since the 1 piece rubber gasket will leak. However Felpro makes a thick one piece gasket that is re-enforced and that has worked great on a buddy's Canton so I am going to go to that hopefully it will work as good on mine.
Bow Tie- after I get the break in miles done on this clutch I'll head back to grab a 11 sec pass, god I can't wait
