next time you install the intake loosen the head bolts and install the intake and torque to spec or as close as possible, then torque the heads down. that should provide a good mating surface between the intake and heads.

One more time, repeat after me... IT'S NOT a CRACK!
I'm not sure if you're supposed to loosen, move and retorque the Failpro 1020 head gaskets. I believe they're supposed to be a one-shot torque gasket. I'm sure repositioning them for the intake would be a no-no. The port alinment and everything else is perfect with the intake anyway.
