It will leak miserably with Fel Pro gaskets.

I have never used gaskets and never had a leak. Drove my 428CJ Cougar 3000 miles this summer including trips to Atlanta from Cincinnati, and return. They had no gasket from the factory and none is needed. Put a light coat of silicone sealant on the clean, dry surfaces and torque the bolts to factory specs.

The Fel Pro gaskets are a guaranteed leak.
