2020 5.7L with manifold leak. A friend suggested that since I am replacing a cracked manifold, why not double up the gasket and give the future warpage some room to flex? Aside from the logistics, is that even doable? Any thoughts? Told you it was a crazy idea!

Spring for a set of Remflex 6022 gaskets.They're a thick graphite gasket that'll handle expansion/contraction better then a multi-layer steel gasket will
