Default IM gasket question!

Okay, say I wanted to put a d15b8 (civic cx) intake manifold on my d15b7 (civic dx). What IM gasket would I use? My engine is really a d15b2 (crx I own), but it's basically a b7. The issue is that the b7 head ports are larger than the cx intake suchness. So I didn't know which gasket to use on there.

Any helps? Thanks a ton.

Yeah, that's what I figured and did, I'm just going around looking for things to second guess.

The idle is a bit crazy as a result of my manual ecu in the auto. I'm just worried about burning coolant and also a leak on the fuel filter where I took the line off. Fuel economy demands everything to run well and especially not for gas to go dripping out the car,
