Header Gasket Question

I just purchased a set of pacesetter long tubes with the y-pipe and im curious to whats the best gaskets to run with them?

They are going on my 2008 GMC Sierra 5.3l. Any advice will be greatly appreciated..

The stock gaskets work fine, they are reusable.

alot of people run the steel layered ones (they maybe stock, not sure).. Just dont run the paper, cork, or graphite gaskets and you'll be good.. When i put my headers on i went to a local parts place (AutoZone, Advance auto parts, ect) and got the fel-pro steel layered gaskets and they were like $17-$19.. They came with the egr gaskets too.
