it is more the install than the gasket, a poorly installed fel-pro will leak more than a properly installed rtv coated piece of cereal box.
whatever gasket you choose make sure you do a good job on the install!

And a good cleaning of both the block and the intake to remove any trace of oil.

Don't use the rubber seals at the two ends . They will usually squeeze out and start leaking, especially the ones without the securing nubs on the bottom. Let the sealer start setting up for about 20 minutes before installing intake to keep it from squeezing out .
