Gasket match- worth it??

It really depends on your intake. My old school performer intake ports were half the size of the EQ Heads. I worked away at the intake and eventually found that about 1-2 inches in, the runners widened right up to the size of the gasket, and the intake ports on the head. So in my case, I think it was totally worth it, but maybe a newer style better quality intake may not require all that work.
