What's the best collector gasket for headers?

I have been installing aluminum collector gaskets, and I only get 3 or 4 years out of them when the expand outward, develop a leak, and need replacing.

Does anyone know of a collector gasket that will last longer than aluminum?

I've using three with great success. I sandwich the aluminum gaskets between two graphite gaskets. DO NOT overtighten!!
