And if it really does happen, the .040" gap leaks significantly more than a .001" gap. This is the key. If you have no gasket, it can't fail. As soon as you use a gasket you're doomed. The first time you tighten the flange to the head with a gasket you bend/ warp it, because the gasket compresses. You dont need gaskets if you made the exhaust right. "use it 'till it breaks, replace as needed"
