Intake gaskets

I am going to pull the intake off and put in my rev kit before I drop the motor into my "new" 91 GTA. I dont know what the intake was used when it was ported and when I put the intake on last time I forget what gasket I used.My question is what gasket should I go with? I would assume a larger port is better than a smaller one, right? I think I used a 1204 but I dont remember if it covered part of the port. Would it be OK if I went with a 1205?
Thanks

measure the port opening with a caliper and buy the one closest to that opening
