If me and I had gaskets that keep blowing I would just go for O-ring the block and ARP head studs if you are not running studs.
I know some motors that run high compression you can drill the block and heads for more studs. Don't know if that can be done with your motor?

If you have the budget to do it go Cometic. Cometic Gasket, Inc.

I believe they do custom gaskets but I doubt it will be cheap.
