New valve cover bolts

Torque wrench-to what N-m/ lb-ft should I get?

Head gaskets

anything else?
Not sure on the price difference between the ARP head studs and the head bolts, but I didn't have a single problem using the head bolts I got from AB

I would recommend the following kit from AB includes just about everything you need for the head gasket job(I am sure you can the same from any parts place as well) it has all the gaskets you'll need, plus valve seals. I would also change out the thermostat while in there and of course new plugs/wires. I forgot the exact torque specs, but if you have the shop manual they are listed in there.
