Does anyone know if the JIMS Exhaust Gasket Installation Tool will work for the M8?   The JIMS website doesn't list the M8 as one of the engines, but I recently saw Dyno Dave use this tool on a Milwaukee 8 in his shop and it appeared to work just fine.  Are the exhaust ports on a M8 the same at the Twin Cam? Do you guys use this tool? I might be changing the exhaust header soon on my '19 Ultra and just wanted to know.   

Thanks!

The M8 uses the same exhaust gasket back to the Evo motors. So I would think the tool would work. Unless the bolt spacing changed.

You can make a tool for about $4.00, Google it on You Tube.

FWIW, if your originals aren't mashed into the port from someone overtightening them at one time.
I wouldn't even hassle with replacing what's there.

I just use a seal driver. Works fine.
