2.) Dirty flash the kernel (this means flashing the kernel without wiping anything)

Restore stock boot partition guide:
This guide will show you how to restore your ROMS stock kernel and ramdisk without losing any data. It will also uninstall Magisk which can be flashed again. Follow this guide if coming from another custom kernel or if something is not working like spectrum or the config filein twisted kernel.

Method 1:
1) Dirty flash your current ROM. This means installing the ROM without wiping anything.
2) Flash Magisk if desired.
3) You are now ready to flash a custom kernel.

Method 2:
1) Extract boot.img from your currently installed ROMs zip file.
2) Go to the install page in TWRP > Flash image > Select the boot.img you extracted and flash it to the boot partition.
3) Reflash Magisk if desired.
4) You have now restored your stock kernel and ramdisk and can now flash a custom kernel.
