Used both on my 78' and haven't had a leak in 5 years of use.

I don't understand the problem with header leaks. I either never have them or can't hear them over the noise of the motor.
A flat true header flange a new Felpro gasket and heads that are clean and I just use ordinary $10 header bolts.

Yeah I use those aluminum collector gaskets they work great, I have had leaks there before I started using them, and they can be used over and over
