It is, but the BOP gasket is the same width as the cork seal. Seems to crush and fit the channel well, but you can see that it sits about 1/2 way between the slots in the pan in the pics. Not sure if that's a seal problem or a pan problem, but the instructions say it's ok to remove them if you need to. Thinking about filling it up and angling the stand a bit to see if I have any leaks at the rear while I wait for the heads.

You still might want to check the rocker clearance to cover if you are using OE covers.

No, I had the cheapie PRWs. Except for the valves, springs and associated hardware, I've used very little of what Kauffmann sent me for the original build plan.
