Another good idea frank! My pipe flanges are welded on solid, but the headers are not. I've got the headers out of the truck right now, and it is very easy to put them in / take them out. So I'll weld those flanges up against the pipe as well. I can probally get them fairly straight. I like your idea of flattening the gasket too -- That should help a fair bit!

Thanks for all the good advice all!
