1928Chrysler 72 refitting pan gaskets

[31 LaSalle]

I recently dropped the pan on my Chrysler 72 to change the oil { inch and a half of sludge glad I did it }

after cleaning the strainer and pan / block surfaces

I am ready to fit the gasket set I purchased from ollson gaskets

the two long gaskets are ok but the two end gaskets are to long

after studying a video posted on here by TIMFX on JULY he had the same problem and cut the excess gasket

but another poster PLY33 said that was wrong

what should I do                      ollsons must make them that length for a reason

Where did you get your gasket?  My local store does not have it  I have a 1929 graham paige with a 6 cyclinder.  I got the gasket material if I have to make my own.

Cutting them is ok. Just make them long enough that they compress slightly when the pan is tightened up.
