I looked at the Moroso unit in a local speed shop, and it is identical to
the other recessed based unit. When I mean identical, I mean down to the
same dimples and design. Only difference is the color. You would have to
build a spacer like I did out of PVC or some sort of rubber tubing. (I used
a rubber connecter pipe originally designed for connecting drainage tile.
Cut it to length and bingo, no problem).
That's why it is really cheaper to go with the Mr. Gasket unit!!
