Bad manifold gaskets

[stewgee]

Hello all
Can someone tell me what the best exhaust/intake gaskets are. I have had a heck of a time getting my 30 A going after installing all new gaskets from the complete set from Mac's. I just pulled the intake and exhaust manifolds and the gaskets are shot. There is signs of leakage from all ports and a portion of the rear gasket was blown away. All manifolds bolts were torqued per specs. Any thoughts would be welcomed.
