Default Which exhaust gaskets?

I recently picked up my headers, which have 1.75" primaries. Then picked up some fel-pro 1438 gaskets not paying any attention - now I notice that the gasket ports are only 1.75" x 1.55".

So, the next step up is the fel-pro 1440, which has a diameter of 1.9"

Anything bad about the gasket being too big? Other suggestions?

I assume I can get these from a stealership? I'm in Canada, and I don't think ws6store ships to me..
How much will I get dinged from my local Chev dealer?

Believe it or not, I have came across some auto part stores that had them. Take the part number down for reference but, they are not that expensive at the dealership anyways.
