I have sealing issues with my 351w's TWTF heads and edelb. performer intake. I figure that the car does so much temp fluxing that the parts are moving, growing/shrinkng, at different rates effecting my seal. After trying almost every "soft' gasket on the market, even the fel-pro printoseal, I found one that I believe is actually working.

Everytime I'd remove the intake, the gaskets looked completely demolished. and I used a bead of RTV front and back everytime. So I started looking for a solid, metal gasket which i found, made by felpro. It has a blue coating all around it and is very firm. But I've noticed lately that I'm getting a drip of coolant here and there from the heads. i'd really like to find a set of deadsoft alluminum gaskets for the intake. Is this a bad idea? Has anyone seen em?
