Allen if you are getting them from the parts store you are getting a WILL FIT. I have run into this many years ago on a C263 and a Fel Pro set. after the third gasket in as many weeks on a DECKED block and a Fresh Ground head with the CORRECT finish it would not seal and do just what you are seeing. I even went as far as getting on the phone with Fel Pro tech dept. and like you have twisted wrenches since i was 15 . The young computed snot was trying to tell me i did not know how to torque a head down . SOOOOooo i went to Case I H and bought a OEM gskt and it also was a FEL PRo BUT it was not made the same as the parts store one . I installed it and OH GUESS WHAT it sealed and i have had no problems with it since . Now one other thing did you chase the threads in the block and chase the head bolts ??? lube them with a LITTLE white grease and then take them down in three steps BUT you have to go to 105-110 on the torque not the 95 . And retorque after she has run for about a half hour .
