Intake Gasket

Just a quick question for you guys. I recently replaced my knock sensors and when I installed the new intake gasket I didn't read the directions first. I used the metal FelPro gasket. It has the "guides" that are supposed to just sit on the head bolts. Well I was shooting the breeze with the neighbor while doing this and removed the head bolts and tightned the gasket down with the head bolts. So my question is, do I need to undo the gasket or will it be alright as is? Thanks in advance for any help.
