Those cometic gaskets are absolute garbage. Rip. Home you used silicone on both sides.
Three different builds on 300 and one on Trackhawk, haven't had any trouble.

Real world data proved they do work. I realize you joined this forum rather late but a few years ago, everyone was using the FI Interchiller spacers with lots of positive results. I'm sure if you search you can find plenty of posts about them. Unfortunately so many earlier forum members now have sold their Hellcat's or left for the other Hellcat forum or FB group and there's not that many people left here that have experience with them from what I've seen recently.
There are still a few of us that hang around :)

Have you pulled the blower after using them? Lmk if they’re soaked in oil
Well yes on the 300, and no oil soak.

And your alternative is??? Using the aluminum gaskets with the flimsy rubber divider with no support or the 550.00 pieces of plastic?/

Spend 50.00 getting blanket off AMAZON and cometic gaskets.
Spend the rest on better mods.

Got a link to that material on Amazon?

And, I trust you went back and added the drain holes after this picture was taken?

It’s not regular plastic lol and it’s not $550. The o rings are worth it. Bet you would see more boost with them. To each their own. I’d like to see a pic of that gasket because I guarantee you there was oil soak by the fill ports in the heads.

Whether they cool or not, stock gaskets introduce oil. These are mine after pulling and I have a catch can. I used to have occasional start up smoke and under WOT and after finding this and it going away after the blower spacers I think they are likely worth it for this alone.

the real problem is this shouldn’t happen if you’re not pressuring your crankcase. I think a breather would prevent this oil bleed over as well, because it’s being pushed up out of the oil fill port in the heads Due to the cranks case being pressurized
