The factory "style" exhaust manifold gaskets are the way to go. You shouldn't have any problems with the ones you got.

I used the old ones pacesetter used to use and it leaked. I now use a Percys brand MLS which works great.

I reused the stock gaskets. Worked great. I threw away the supplied ones with the pacestter headers.
