[QUOTE="jbird68, post: 450876, member: 21610"] Here is a side-by-side photo of the old gasket and the new gasket. You can see how thick the rubber is compared to the old one. Today, I ended up cutting the rib out so it would reduce the thickness. I got it on the motor and finally got the latch to lock. It still took some work to get that far. I am hoping that when the temperatures warm up it will soften and then for better. It still is not secured to the hood. Before I did that I wanted to let the rubber take a set to the new shape. I have no idea where to get a stapler that will go through the fiberglass and bend the staples back.
