Finally Got My Stepped Hindle?

Instructions say you don't need gaskets. Trying to see what everyone else has done. Pitch em or not? Also, what type high temp sealer is everyone using for the joints, and to wrap the header or not. I know I know, 20 questions. Better to do a little homework than to learn the hard way I think. Tell me what you did, saw, or recommend.
Thanks

i put my hindle on with the copper O-gaskets, even tho directions said not to. I used some copper silicone hi temp stuff. No real reason, it was just the only hi-temp silicone the autoparts store had at the time.

\i would abolutely NOT wrap the pipe, not enough space. As it is you are going to have to space out the radiator. I have already melted some plastic under the clutch area, maybe a little wrap there?? not much room...
