The leaking/seaping issues with Cometics are directly the result of the wrong finish in most cases. If you look at a brand new edelbrock intake or head, that machining is not good enough IMO either. The more "stockish" the gasket the rougher the surface can be. Felpro blue wants something like 85, Cometics like something closer to 30-35 and as said, the right equipment to measure roughness average is expensive and pretty rare.
Well, art is art, isn't it? Still, on the other hand, water is water! And east is east and west is west and if you take cranberries and stew them like applesauce they taste much more like prunes than rhubarb does. Now, uh... Now you tell me what you know.
