Hello again,
Looking to drop my oil pan, I wanted to line up all parts possibly needed before I start. IF I have to drop exhaust manifolds, I would like to have gaskets set for my 1960 318. Went to Auto Zone and they showed one for my 318 thru 1965 but the set had to be special ordered and would take over a week. I'm planning on dropping the pan this coming Monday. Went to Pep Boys. They showed something similar but when I asked them look up 1980 318, they came up with a set that fit "1960 to 89". They look like the set I now have that I didn't think were for my car and I have on Ebay right now. I looked them up and they were listed for 1966-89[my current set pictured below]. They are FEL-PRO MS 90460. Will these work on my car and what are the small paper gaksets for, they're not for not exhaust? Sorry, being relatively new to MOPARs, I don't recognize the exhaust bolt patterns yet.
Thanks again for any help,
Karl.

those ones aren't even close to right . the correct ones are made of steel but you can use the ones made of same material as in your photo , just take care in how you tighten
them -------------------------------------------------later

As said above the ones you have pictured are not what you want. The lil hole below every port says I am after 1975 and the out-side ports say LA-360.
Another part of this is the above picture is a item used when one wants headers on their engine ( it is not an OEM item ).

The Metal Piece between The Heads and The Exhaust Manifolds are really correctly --- Heat Shield's ( even though they are labeled as a gasket )---
that are held in place by being sandwiched. Notice they are above the height of The Manifolds.

Thanks all. It is marked on the box, but what had me confused is when Pep Boys showed this same set for 1960-89. I just wanted to be sure. Hard to believe the correct ones are that hard to find.
Weather's finally nice. Might take a drive over to Spring Carlisle for a bit and see if I can find a set. Oh well, yerd work first.
Thanks again,
Karl.
