VERY good gasket, decent fits, good fit and in the end this gasket created a dry tight seal across the entire pan (including front and rear timing case covers). main cover). Installing this shim was one of the 3 worst jobs I've ever done, it was a very difficult problem as was everything that could go wrong (took over 2 hours for the whole install). The "Fit" plastic guides are required, I was able to fit the four corners but couldn't get the tray into place - the washer is so thick it was impossible to push it up with enough force to do that to close the compartment. just enough on the engine block that I could tighten all of the oil pan bolts and any force I used to push the oil pan/shim into place resulted in the driver's side of the shim pushing inward and falling into the oil pan. I ended up having to resort to small pickaxes and screwdrivers to keep the flange bolt holes flush with the gasket and block. When I pushed the pan up with a jack, it took considerable force for the jack to seat the gasket and stand and allow the flange bolts to be tightened. I wasn't sure if the assembly would be completely sealed, but it doesn't leak. This is a high quality product but the installation was FIGHT.
