I have been using felpro 1255 gaskets for a few years now without any problem. When I install them though I use Gaskacench on the entire surface of the gasket. I glue the gasket to the head and then glue the intake to gaskets on the heads. I apply the glue to both surfaces let it set a couple minutes then stick them in place.
The only problem is trying to get the intake back off but I never had a leak.
