Christ-

I think the stepped gap will work just fine, if proper care is exercised regarding gaps being adequate for thermal expansion. But the gain compared to going with the Total Seals is probably closer to 25% than 75% IMHO. It is cheap and easy, and should increase FE, hard to complain about that.
