Using cheapo Hedmans and they never leaked before, until these last two go rounds. First time was Hedman fiber gasket with steel core,this time it's all fiber type Hedman gasket, leaking somewhere around #5 or #7. Took it off and redid it. Found what I think was power steering fluid on the bottom gasket edge of the #7 exhaust port,had a leak and think the gasket rubbed a wet spot. Otherwise the gasket was good with minimal distortion. Cleaned it and the head off with carb cleaner and reinstalled...same issue.

Any chance it will bake out?

Trick to tightening sequence or some other time-tested fix? I started out snug and now the bolts are all real tight with no effect.Don't want to go monster and strip aluminum threads.
Tempted to run it, but if anyone has a great idea maybe I'll give it one more shot. The average person wouldn't hear it with the hood closed, but it's annoying the crap put of me.
