GM or parts store gaskets?

[bah]

i have heard mixed opinions, which is a better quality, OEM GM gaskets, or the ones you get through napa or advance auto? a lot of people tell me the GM ones are junk, i just have a hard time believing that the cheaper parts store ones are any better.

fel-pro are decent
although sometimes I get some Fel-Pro Lower intake gaskets that are blue(those sux). They dont have the dowel rods that go into the block like the black ones do.

I would personally never use non-manufactures parts unless I really had to. 9 times out of 10, the manufactures parts are going to be far superior.
