Dan,
I had Felpro gaskets fail at the intake runners on cylinders 2 and 3 on my
351w. After confirming the manifold was not warped, I changed out the gaskets with Cometic and used a high temp sealent on both sides from Toyota (part # 00295-00103). Cross torque the bolts on installation (24 lbs.), run the engine, let it cool over night and retorque. No problems since. I now check the torque on the intake bolts every couple of months.
