1/2 Bridge question

Just a quickie; I've heard things about having to use different apex seals with bridgeports or do various other things to keep the corner seals from falling in or something... any of this necessecary in a half bridge engine? And also, what all *IS* necessecary?

In the rear rotor, the iron apex seals need to be installed backwards so the little triangle piece is toward the intermediate plate. Or you could try carbon seals which are single piece.
