However, next set I put on will get the individual pieced gaskets, to see if it dampens noise any. Who knows, HF noise could be affecting the Knock Sensor.

your build is also... built. So, slap these on with no gasket? If I have small leaks wouldn't be bad to use a little RTV would it?
I've also heard its best to do headers stone cold, sitting over night at least. This true? I dont want to want into the terror of studs getting broke.
