 NFW!Steel shim gasket .0025-.003 works well, composition & other gaskets t=
olerate more but I doubt any gasket will seal with more than .007 or so.The=
 steel gasket will clamp down the liners but you'll get minimal compression=
 of the gasket elsewhere.
I would be trimming those liners down...Good luck!
