header gaskets for Vortec heads and SLP headers

I will be installing a set of Vortec heads and I will be using my SLP off-road 1-3/4 headers. Can anyone who has this setup let me know what header gaskets they are using or which a re better than most"? Thank you.

I've been having excellent luck with the copper header gaskets, even switched heads and they still sealed back up. When I bought my new top end with Vortecs I bought some Percy dead soft aluminum header gaskets to try since my aluminum collector gaskets work great also, but sold all the new stuff for my new AFR 210's
