I know that some folks have sent old gaskets off to Cometic to have them make up new ones. Fel-pro has a metal reinforced material of the same thickness, but as you noted, customer reviews said it was hard to work with. Cometic does have a high density fiber gasket that is allegedly fuel and oil resistant and good for temps up to 650 degrees. Thought I might try that.
