That's how I installed mine and it split out at the corners.
I also used a torque wrench and torqued the bolts in the correct
pattern.  I think next time I would torque the bolts to about 100 inch
lbs then wait until the Permatex dries some before I finished torquing
the bolts.  I think when it's wet it's too slippery.

I always apply a thin coat of permatex aviation form-a-gasket to both 
sides of the gasket. It hasn't failed me yet...
And remember to never over-torque! ; )
