The chrome ones corrode, and the pot metal stock ones warp.

I finally went to Napa and got a cast iron one. Haven't had problems since, but the key is a good gasket and flat clean surfaces. Fel-Pro #35562T. It's a reusable gasket, and you don't use tack or gasket sealer to put it in. Just shove it in and tighen it down. Done.
