Default KP head gasket any good?

so I did a z6 swap and it turns out that the head gasket is leaking (hope the heads not cracked or warped)

Im going to pick up some arp head studs ASAP
Back when I thought my b7 had a blown head gasket I got OEM Honda bolts and a KP head gasket
Does any one have experience with or know if KP is any good

IMHO, there is no good reason to not use on OEM HG.
The only time I wouldn't is if it was a -----it motor, and needed to get something on the road the same day. (assuming the local dealership didnt have it in stock)
