Which gasket should I use on a amc 304 with a edelbrock performer intake?

Fel-Pro MS96011 - Valley pan gasket - $27
Mr Gasket MRG-5844 - Ultra-Seal intake manifold - $21
Mr Gasket MRG 800G - Standard intake gasket - $13

The valley pan gasket says "if your engine requires it"? I don't know if it
requires it or not.

If the manifold has a place for the Exhaust Gases Recirculation
valve then you'll need the valley pan to keep the oil from burning and
turning to sludge against the exhaust cross over part of the manifold. I
block off the cross over to keep the carburetor as cool as possible and
to allow the headers to be tuned.

I don't have the EGR, so I should be ok with the regular gasket. Thanks for
the info.

It turns out that the instructions it says "Remove tin pan from bottom of
stock manifold and reinstall on new manifold with drive pins supplied with
kit."

My problem is I'm installing on a new motor - I don't have an old manifold
or the tin pan. I contacted edelbrock and they suggested I get one made or
buy an intake on ebay...I just bought an intake from edelbrock and I can't
even use it unless I have an old one to take parts from...it seems they
would have mentioned that somewhere in the advertising or on the box. Not
happy with edelbrock at the moment
