Nobody seems to have any luck with these gaskets. That being said I have one on my A with a 5.5 Snyder head and no problems.
These gaskets DO NOT use sealer and surfaces must be clean, dry, and flat. Dry means no water and no oil or grease residue. Copper or graphite gaskets are probably easier to install.
