VPC Users which Gasket do you use for Primary

I have the AIM Variable Pressure Clutch (VPC) and have cut the center section of my Harly Primary Cover gasket out. This was the described method from AIM for sealing the Primary cover.

Do any of you use another method? I am having some leak issues, and curious if other are, with the VPC as well.

Thanks-

Faast Ed is an unknown quantity at this point
I'm lucky. My 08 has the oring in the cover. VPC fits good in there.

I just did the install 4 days ago and so far.....400 miles later no leaks. Did you re-use the gasket or did you use a new one?

I also used the stock one and trimmed it out.Maybe you cut it to far into the sealing surface.

I use the large o-ring on my stock 04 flhtc cover. I have about 50 to 55,000 miles on the VPC and still on the original o-ring that came with it.

I cut out the stock gasket. No leak issues here.
