look for any ripples in the new gasket. I had this problem with an oversized gasket. I had two new gaskets side by side. One was three inches longer than the other. Went with the short that time, would have been perfect if it was an inch longer. Rubber is my #1 frustration with the old trucks. Somehow they were able to punch out these gaskets by the literal millions 50 years ago. But with all the worlds advancements you can not get two of the same today.
