My gaskets didn't droop in the middle like the pictures I saw from Tom's car. They were solidly in place around the center ports (and very hard to scrape off there.....). The only area of concern was on all four corners around the water jackets. I suspect the RTV had a lot to do with that. And, I did retorque a couple of times due to coolant leaks at the corners that I'm sure didn't help. It makes more sense to me now to not use the RTV at all, unless it's recommended to use a light coat on the cork end gaskets.
