Exclamation Buying Header Gaskets (help/advice)

http://www.autozone.com/R,480435/sto.../addToList.htm

I bought new pypes lt heADERS AND am putting my rebuilt engine in in the next few days. I want to buy new header gaskets cause the ones pypes provided i think are make of cardboard! lol

I was looking at the percys gaskets, from my searches they seem to be a good buy. I found these ones from autozone.com ..my question isss are these gonna fit my car? I dunno if there are different sizes for different headers or are they all the same?

I just put those exact gaskets on my car with my pypes long tubes. They seem to be very good, but when you are putting them on just tie a rubber band through the gasket and header on all four corners so the gasket stays put. It is a pain if you try to keep the gasket just laying on the header and it slides all over when you put the header on the head. But i was using bolts so it may be different if you use studs.
