For the record, JD is 100% correct. If the machined surfaces mate perfectly, it will not leak. Ive ran numerous dsms/porsche like that and now my daily driven turbo LS with exactly no leaks.
Some porsche come from the factory without exhaust gaskets at all.
Gaskets are a compromise for the factory quality.

Aside from all of that, you're failing to realize how little sealing surface Pete has with that ported head.

I'm refering to the $1,000 bet that HIS manifold (no one else's, just his) will leak if HE (not you, not anyone else) uses no gasket.
Never said anything about gasketless manifolds not working because everyone knows it does (or at least should). I mentioned only HIS manifold.
I already won the manifold source bet so that isn't fair.
