When running alum heads with kimetic gaskets the web in the head between the center two cylinders gets hot enough to anneal the alum and then the ribs in the head gasket presses grooves in the web. When running your new rings how deep can the grooves be before it will not seal? Or do the rings disperse the heat away from the web fast enough that the alum is not annealed?
