Go to autozone. You can get a complete engine gasket kit for 61.99 and its made by felpro which in my opinion is some of the best gaskets out there.

I don't know what intake you are using. But, the Ebock intakes recomend not using fel-pro blue gaskets. I think that is the gasket they are refering to. It is a standard gasket but around the port area there is a blue looking O-ring type thing. Apparently they have a tendancey to fail.

Good point, I think the part number for the felpro gaskets that edelbrock recommends is 1247.
