If you have iron manifolds and are willing to put up with the work, Dave Lenzi's copper gaskets are pretty good, but you need true manifolds and the time to do the 5~7 retorques to make them work. I am hoping that they will keep the good manifolds from cracking. I do not have enough experience to know that this will be true in the long term.
