I'n my experience with changing intakes on 302s, I've found that yes the cork gaskets for the lower intake are junk, but when using just the gasket maker you have only slighty less of a chance of a leak occuring. Your best bet is to find an intake gasket set that includes the rubber front and back gaskets and using a small amount on the corners of these. I've known plenty of people who swear by the gasket in a tube method, but i've never had a problem with the rubber ones.
