It should bolt up just fine. Good luck tuning that thing though, Jay's book showed very wide measured A/F ratio variance from side to side because of the offset design.
For gaskets, stay away from Felpro printoseals. Lots of bad stories. I use Victor MS15166X and haven't had a problem. The Victors are silicone molded over stamped aluminum while the Fel Pro gaskets are silicone molded on paper. I don't ever use the end gaskets. Just a bead of the Right Stuff on the front and back.
