Absolutely, aluminium gaskets. I worked in a speed shop in NY for a few years. Saw a lotta guys come in for aluminum gaskets after friggen with the gaskest that come with the headers.
Also, be sure to use locktite, and retighten the bolts after a couple days. They almost always loosen after they heat up a few times. Instead of the hex head bolts that come with the headers, I always used round head bolts with the hex inside. Way easier to loosen and tighten without having to try to angle that damn box wrench in between everything.
Locktite everything. Just my opinion dude.
