I use manifold gaskets (about 7 bucks) and I cut my header flanges. I have stainless header bolts so u cant tighten them very tight without messing the heads up (3/8). I tighten them when I put them on and then forget about them. No problems with loose bolts or leaks. Cut the flanges on the arrows.
