You have to use the right combination of the proper seals AND the 
correct washers (when required.) 

Your 68, if it is the original case and cooler, requires 3 thick 
washer and the proper seal. The proper seal for this era is thicker 
than the late seal which you may have been sold. I'm sending you 
a copy of the FAQ which you should study to see what you 
actually need for the parts actually in your engine. You cannot just 
assume that the parts you have are the originals.
