Default TPIS Headers and exhaust gasket mismatch

I remember reading a post a while ago where someone claimed that there was a mismatch between the header or the header gasket on TPIS headers and the L98 and/or AFR heads. I did search after search and cannot find anything. I'm hoping that the person that discovered it reads this and responds or that maybe someone else knows about it.

TIA

I have the TPIS Headers and L98 (or ZZ4) Alum D port heads. There we no mismatch on the gaskets there. Maybe it was those aftermarket Heads with large square Holes???

I am using MSD Super Conductor wires. No I did not replace my springs and I'm not going to either. There is no reason to go into the motor even if my HP is a little low. Mash the gas and you would understand.
I'll just look at the little things over the winter. Might upgrade to a MSD Digital 6 also.
