I had a valve cover gasket on my race truck. It sealed fine but after the first valve adjustment it had swelled up so much that it could not be put back on. I had the same problem with the oil pan gaskets. Nice idea in theory but failed in practice.

Yeah, see here and the onward links from there, then buy legitimate gaskets that actually work instead of these "real" ones.
