Default will this affect exhaust gasket sealing?
Picked up some refurbished heads and just want to make sure that these small scratches won't prevent my header gaskets from sealing up.

Probably not. Looks pretty minor in the picture. As long as they don't easily catch your fingernail, don't sweat it.

Hard to tell in the pictures how bad the scratches are, but it appears to me that it'll be fine with a GM MLS exhaust gasket.
