The gasket kit comes with gaskets in about 5 different thickness'. I
doubt you could get gasket material in as many thickness, or that you'd
be able to cut them correctly so that they'd line up. I keep a bunch of
those gaskets around for my Stag, which uses the same pump.
And don't use sealer at all. It will affect the thickness of the gaskets.
