vortec gaskets

what is the GM part number for intake gaskets for vortec heads. it is official that the Fel-Pro ones are crap and you'll have to replace them constantly for the rest of your life.

How long did the gaskets last before giving you problems? My 406 has been doing fine for 2 years now with vortec heads and Fel-pro gaskets. (using vortec style intake also)

i found the gm part number it's 12529094
never use fel pro 1255's. they aren't the O ring style like GM uses. fel pro makes replacement ones for 96-99 trucks that are O ring style but i dont know the part #. you can get those at the parts store.
