Default b20 vtec head gasket question

i just finish building my b20 vtec and i did it with the full golden eagle kit.
the head had to come off and now i am ready to put it back on. My question is since i do not have the golden eagle b20 vtec head gasket any more do i need to modify the oem b20 head gasket, or is it good as is??? i still have the correct dowel pins and everything from the golden eagle kit. please help

You need to remove 2 rivets on the exhaust side of the head if you use a B20 gasket.
