Been looking at the gaskets that came with the gasket kit I bought. The gaskets for the cyl. and heads total 7,, 3 alum. gaskets thin, 4 smaller but thicker alum. gaskets. Shouldn't the total for these gaskets be 8, I think I'm missing one of the thinner gaskets for the cylinders am I correct?

After tearing down about 8 TIVs for 914 owners at my work, the first thing I always saw when pulling the heads off were big black deposits around the bottom of the cylinder. Inspect the gasket -- and they look like a rat nibbled away at the edges. We always lap the cylinder into the head.
