Default Felpro 1262 WTF!

Heres's what's up. The intake ports on my GT40X heads are too tall for Felpro 1250s but while the Felpro 1262s fit perfectly heightwise, they are about a 2/16ths of an inch too wide. The parts store guy who sold me the 1250s said the 1262s might cause turbulance by not being a perfect fit. I have boths sets now. What heads do any of you have and what gaskets are you using?

Your not really going to get a noticable loss in power from the gaskets port opening being a little too wide. I would bolt it on as is and not worry about it. But thats just me. Also the 1250's can be trimmed up some but probably not enough.
