1990 Ford F150 intake manifold gasket install

I am replacing the intake manifold gaskets on my 1990 Ford F150 5.0l. I got the Fel-Pro MS94951 intake manifold set. My question is,is it better to use the Fel-Pro end rubber gaskets with RTV on the corners or leave the end rubber gaskets out and just lay a 1/4" bead of RTV down?

I installed the intake manifold today. Left out the rubber gasket ends, just used RTV. Will fire it up in a couple of days, but all went well. Thanks for the help.
