Widening stock gaskets...

One of my runner gasket is wrecked..Is it OK for me to just get stock gaskets and dremel it to fit..

reasons for going this route:

1)Accel superram gaskets are expensive(duty,taxes and shipping) and takes two weeks to ship at the earliest.
2)The Accel gasket holes are barely fit the TPIS bigmouth manifold..

I cut stock gaskets for my siamesed SLP's if I need to raplace them.... I'm sure it would work ok for you... Just use sharp scissors because there's a metal laminate in the center thats pretty tough to cut.
