All the gasket makers say to go commando...but I’m getting so quick at swapping out the manifold these days I may have another go...interestingly enough I read a review on summit where a guy does the same: glues (permatex aviation sealant) the gasket to the head, sets it by snugging down the intake, waits, then checks and then glues the intake to the gasket.
Another thing, whatever is going on seems equal in all holes as the plugs all look the same...
