I've gotta get 'em, so where do I go? Should I get a special kind like the flange gasket or just a paper material?

You need these for your car? Unless they have flat flanges you do not need gaskets, copper header flange gaskets tend to last much longer then the standard paper gaskets...a lot of local parts store carry these.

I was under the impression that I did, at least that's what I was told.

But I guess not, eh?

What kind of headers do you have. Are talking about gaskets for the collectors or up at the heads? Unless you have some kind of old school long tubes on there, you shouldnt need any gaskets.
