Reed cage gaskets?

[Searafter]

Purchased a set of V force reeds for my 08 700 and they have 4 gaskets in the box. Anyone know if you are supposed to use these on each side of the cage? Does not look like the stock ones used any gaskets??

Stock reeds have an O-ring molded into the cage flange. Yes you need to install a gasket on each side of the reed cage flange.
