Default 4.7l headgasket fits 4.5L
There isn't much difference holding the 97mm gasket onto the 4.5L head - Would this be a problem?

It's just 2mm, but get the right gasket. The metal ring should be clamped firmly at the top of the cylinder. With the "open deck" design, the surface is fairly small.

Just making sure there were no "I did that 200k ago and there's been no problem, even with 30psi of boost" stories.
Thanks,
