Those gaskets in the OP's photos are standard HD OEM exhaust flange gaskets. If you walk into any HD dealership and ask for exhaust flange gaskets, that is what they will pull for you. If you ask for Screaming Eagle or performance gaskets, you will get the flat ones. The performance gaskets can be a **** to get some aftermarket pipes to seal, the fat standard ones are more universal. BTDT
How should they be installed? You can clearly see they are smaller than the port and won’t fit snug. I would think they would mash up unevenly when the pipes are installed.
Thankd for sny help.

The gaskets in my picture are not the cone type. Thet are a thick flat ring.

Those small gaskets are for a Harley Street 500 or 750 engine with smaller exhaust ports.
The gaskets that came with my Fuel Moto Jackpot are squish type and go in and seal very easily. No need to freeze I just dabbed on a little grease to keep them in place while installing the headpipe.
