Get the ones for the FAST intake, they fit the stock intakes. BYUNSPEED sells them for like $35-40 IIRC.

I'm wondering if it was $560 for the intake AND gaskets, no way (even from GM) are the gaskets that much.

Get a part number from that guy that quoted you that, and report back here. I doubt he looked it up right.
