which head gasket

hello,

i want to use 350 heads on my 305 and i dont know which head gasket i should get. the 350 has bigger cc so the original ones will not fit until i mill them down for 58cc (.030 ) ?

and what if i dont mill them and go with the lower compression, can i use the stock 305 gasket then?

I would use a 305 head gasket.
