Default Head gaskets for boosted application

Hey guys,
I have 2000 and newer LS6 truck heads that I'm putting back on my 98 LS1 block. I've had them on there once before and I used the GM MLS 6.0 liter gaskets, they worked great. My question is, I stopped by the local store and bought some gaskets that the store or I am not sure will work, they are stamped with 5.7 on them and are the (I think these are the years) 2002-2004 GM 5.7 MLS gaskets. Does anyone know if these will work or are the gaskets to small for the combustion chamber on the heads? Thanks for the help.

AFAIK you need 4'' or 6.0L head gaskets, they 5.7's arent wide enough and wont seal properly.
