I'm having trouble installing these  thick gaskets,  anyone have tips or tricks installing these exhaust gaskets without damaging them. Much appreciated

they are thick. I didn't think they were going to fit at first as well. All I did was slowly work them in there while going round and round little by little and they fit eventually. I didn't have any leaks and they sealed up nicely.

Put them in the freezer so they can slip in easier. This worked for me as well as driving them in with a bearing race tool.

Thanks for the freezer tip. Did you use any lubricant
