well, i know one you install them you have to break them in, but i have never actually installed them myself

so are you talking about the gasket where the jug bolts to the cases? or where the head bolts on to the jug

where the jug bolts onto the case , he only used gasket maker and no gasket lol, so i got new gaskets and rings , just wanted to know if its ok to put new rings in or do i need my jug homed or anything , or can i put the rings in the way it is , the jug is not hurt all all good and smooth

if your talking about the cylinder to the crankcase, Vito's performance makes a steel gasket that is rubber coated to stop them from blowing out. yes you can install new rings, just break them in properly.
