Intrepid griddle gasket

[Rob711]

i have a 1983 non cat intrepid, the gasket was torn so I ordered a universal kit so I can do the doors as well when they need it. With old, I believe wrong gasket, the top was flush. Now it’s maybe 1/8” raised. Not pulling in air, it this correct/ok.
The white gasket came out, had no furnace caulk/sealant holding it down. Replaced with wire mesh covered one next to it

The VC griddles ALL take 5/16" armor gasket.
Is it down into the groove in the stove top?

It's in the groove, I used minimal amount of cement, I'd say it's 5/16. It was the only metal covered one in the kit. With previous gasket top would close down flush, it doesn't do that now

It's cool. As it wears in it'll go down a bit more. No worries.

Thanks, I've noticed it seems to be settling.
