Jack et al..
I've had no problems with just making sure of my liner protrusion
and torquing the heads to 105 ft lbs. Granted, I'm not stressing
my `4 as much as you racers do, however my `4 is bored out and
running about 10-1 compression with a hot cam. In over 12 years of
almost daily driving and some sprited autocrossing I've never had
a problem with blowing any head gasket that's been on the car (I'm
firmly knocking wood as I type this).

That's not a leak... My car's just marking its territory...
