I tried a print without the gasket and I got leaks specifically in Ch1 and 8, so a new clamp plate in steel is needed:

The images below is the result I got though, which does seem promising. I decided to only print with the top extruders (Ch1, 4, 5, 8) and the colour change does seem faster than R0:

In other news, I tried to use foil to reduce the amount of air between the cartridge and c8or, but was unsuccessful:

Folded the top edge so that I had a straighter edge to work with.
This is about half length, which was much to much.
I removed most of the foil, and even then the cartridge wouldn't insert.
