Intake manifold gaskets

So I need to replace my intake manifold gaskets because i'm leaking oil out the back of the manifold. I have the edelbrock performer 289 intake. Should I buy some from Summit or can I get high quality ones from say NAPA? Here are the ones I found on Summit. Fel-Pro gasket,Mr. Gasket I also see there are different port heights and widths, how do I know which one will work for me?

You can get Felpro gaskets at most parts houses, you don't need to order them thru the catalog houses. I'd steer clear of the Felpro "print-o-seal" intake gaskets though. If you've got stock heads, just tell them you want intake gaskets for any 302. Even the sets labeled for the EFI intakes will work, they just come with a gasket for the upper to lower intakes too. The "print-o-seal gaskets have a bead of sealer around the ports. They tend to degrade over time though and get sucked into the intake ports.
