Personally, I don't think this thread got off the rails. Although, that does happen a lot around here. The OP asked a question of the members and the answers have been relatively on target.

I like and use Superformance gaskets.....in certain places. They are the ONLY thing that I have found that can stop my intake from sucking oil. But their valve cover gaskets leaked on my Hemi. Fel Pros stopped the leaks. I think because they were softer. Plus they are a lot cheaper.

I do have to torque them occasionally. And I change them when I adjust the valves. Works out to about $15 a year. But the oil stays in the engine now.

Just my .
