Question ARH's Graphite/Fiber Gaskets adequate?

So I phoned ARH, and they said their header flanges/ports are dead-on, and their graphite/fiber gaskets are just fine. Is there any dispute in the community and still a push for MLS ones?

Application is an '01 Camaro SS...

TIA!

I always use factory GM MLS gaskets on EVERY header job, I even run them on my 2" kooks with all pro heads.

what the reason not wanting to run the GM MLS's? they are only 12 bucks each from the dealer....

From what I have seen I like to still run GM MLS gaskets, I think they seal better and are overall a better product. Not to say that ARH gaskets are bad I just overall see most people use the MLS gaskets for the piece of mind and to make sure there will be no leaks.
