Hi guys, really need some help here.
So I've just taken apart my stock cy 26cc fuelie engine to replace the very worn leaky head gasket. I ordered a zenoah 2 bolt gasket to replace it and the website said it would fit the cy engine. So i test fitted it and it looks like there are some gaps near the center of the engine and it doesn't line up perfectly, should I go ahead and install it or not? Ill attach a photo. Any help would be great.

It looks good to me, granted it is a little thin on the two sides but I have used similar shaped gaskets and had them hold.

thanks for clarifiying that. Was super freaked out fro a sec. My dad thought the same thing as you, as long as it seals the outside properly should be good.
