You can use a normal exhaust gasket for the head to the flange. For the back end use a normal flange gasket.
For the middle part, you can use copper RTV

Wait... The flange is the part on the manifold that is bolted to the heads. You shouldn't need new flanges...
Anyways, technicalities.
What I meant to say was that for the gasket the goes between the flex pipe and collector pipe flanges (where the manifold bolts to the rest of the exhaust) you can get those gaskets at any auto parts store.

As for the header to heads there is a gasket made specifically for that application that is universal to any manifold.
