Honest truth,you should buy an magnehelic gauge(ebay is fine)and study it,while doing tests.(same as a professional does).Then you can use sealer,up and down the stove sides,while watching the meter.This is what a professional would do_Or you can just quickie caulk/seal the outer edges of the front cast member,and see what it does.But,what about the top and bottom?Do you trust your workmanship?Just thoughts.
direct me in the rite direction and I'll order one. Dont know much about them . Seams to be a few with different ranges
 
Just updating....... I will not be able to work on the stove till tomorrow. I will keep you guys posted. Plan of action is to remove the frame get a thicker gasket and not over tighten. Also somehow I'm going to make sure it is not bent. Not sure if I'm going to a thicker door gaskets.....thoughts. Also I've been looking at the latch set up. Is there any adjustment?
 
I would be inclined to disassemble and put the frame back on wet (bead of sealer on the flange)then smooth out excess after everything is tight.Cast iron does warp but not to the extent of sheet steel, did it have equal gaps before you tore it down for repairs?
Wish I would of checked
