Have a re-drilled LA iron 4 bbl intake ready to go on my 360 magnum-headed 360, should I use a magnum intake gasket set or a set for 340/360 heads?

You redrilled the intake to now use vertical bolts? & I am assuming some spacers sliced at an angle on one end to go on the bolt(s) first (so the angle matches the angle on the mani where you drilled). First confirm what size of port openings you have (head & intake) as there are (2) sizes of SB LA intake gasket port sizes that I am aware of: felpro numbers, one for a 318 & the other for a 360. I can find them later.

Yep, angled spacers, using stock magnum heads and factory 360 iron intake, have a good supply of Fel-Pro 1213 340/360 gaskets & a couple sets of Edelbrock 7276 gaskets, but will buy a set of magnum-specific gaskets if they will seal better.
