Default What exhaust gasket for AFR heads?

I have researched the correct intake gasket for my 265 AFR's that I will be running (GM Performance for the ZZ502), but I have not really seen much addressing the correct header / exhaust manifold gaskets to run with these. I will be running them with Lightning headers. I used a standard header gasket with my GM heads. Will the same gasket work with the AFR's, or will I need something else? Also wondering if I will be spending my time re-torquing the header bolts on this thing with the higher expansion rates of the aluminum heads.

Anyone have any input on this?

I ran a set of the 265's, which are an awesome head. I just ran a standard gasket, I don't remember exactly what they were but it was nothing special. I also never needed to re-torque anything.
