I getting ready to put the top end on my bike. Is it better to put the gaskets in dry or with a gasket sealer?

Thanks,
Michael

Clean the surfaces well, and put the base gasket on dry.  Good luck!  James

I like to put them on with an extremely thin coat of copper anti sieze compound. Comes off a tad easier.
