Bill,

If at all possible, don't get hurt.... I still need your assistance at the dyno that evening. Thanks.

Oops, that's Wednesday... Still don't get yourself hurt.

'Glue' them in with a dab of high temp antiseize.

If you need to hold those gaskets in then give them a small squeeze and put them in.

And if you can't get them out, can't you just leave 'em and mount the header flanges flush up against them? Or is there 'crush' built into them, so that not replacing would give you an exhaust leak? I don't recall ever hearing/reading that they're one time use only (?)
