Gaskets and port sizes

[TVaRt]

Hi, i have a 5ltr griff and i have had to strip it down removing the heads and sump etc. I have bought a standard gasket set with the composite gaskets for the heads which seem ok, thing is it also came with steel gaskets for the exhausts and a rubberised steel gasket for the intake manifold, are these likely to be ok or should I be looking to get specific gaskets for the enlarged intake and exhaust ports on a 5ltr head?

place the gasket on the head and see if the size is correct.

Don't have the heads at the moment, but it looks like the intake is ok but the exhaust are very close, overlapping in some places by a mm or two. Will get some ported exhaust gaskets! Cheers
