Default manifold gaskets

I want to change my UIM/LIM gaskets to the aluminum joints. Can anyone tell me what the best brand to get would be. I don't normally do this type of work myself but my budget won't allow for anything else. Any help would be appreciated.

Hands down winner. Get the Fel-Pro PermaDryPlus. Dorman also makes a metal carrier gasket but I haven't actually seen them. I think they are made in China whereas the Fel-Pro are USA. I looked at Victor Reinz also from RockAuto, the picture showed they were metal but when I called the company to confirm the picture was incorrect and they were all nylon like the lousy original equipment ones.
