Default Reinhart true duals exhaust gasket?

I have a 05 bagger that I had my dealer install Reinhart true duals on. At the end of last season I lost one of the gasket flange nuts so I replaced and re-torqed. Than I lost the one on the rear cylinder. I just loosened everything up and was going to replace the gasket with STOCK Harley exhaust gaskets. The gaskets are tapered but the header pipe on the Reinharts is not belled like the stock header pipe. After I installed in sure didn't seem like the header was very far into the jug. I'm going to call Reinhart but thought I would ask here if there is a differant exhaust gasket that would be better to use with the Reinhart pipe rather than the tapered gasket from Harley. It appears that as soon as the header starts to engage the gasket it stops pulling into the jug. Has anyone else run into this problem.

Default Rineharts/Gaskets

I have the Rinehart True Duels on my 05 Ultra and I used the Screamin Eagle gaskets on mine and they seem to fit better than the original HD ones. They are not tapered and are thinner.

I looked at them in the catalog and it didn't look like they were tapered, that you for verifing that for me. They didn't have them in stock at the dealer on yesterday but if I don't get any other suggestions I will order a set.

Go with the SE gaskets... they should seal up nicely!

I have Rinehart TDs on my bike, and I use the SE gaskets.
