i would at least pick up a stock timing chain and dampener. then you will need the upper plentum gasket, lim gasket, 2 coolant elbows (most likely will break), cam bolt, crank bolt, front cover gasket, and rocker bolts. prolly forgeting a couple small things, but thats it for the most part.
Might as well put new Viton valve seals in there , since your redoing the heads, plus they give you an extra .020 valve clearance and ZZP modded retainers will give you another .030 clearance for a total .050 clearance. Are your heads assembled? If not they will just slip on your guides, then you can put the heads together for the install. I would also get the alm. lower intake gasket, suppose to be alot better than the older style lower inake gaskets. Also ARP head studs would be nice. And if your running any FI, MLS head gaskets would be great.

The stock oil PSI gauge would be fine for monitoring the PSI level if its getting low. Gauges that are usefull is wideband, fuel PSI, and if you want a great scanner gauge to monitor your coolant temp and fuel trims Aeroforce scan Gauge is outstanding, it can get DTC codes and clear them and you can have 2 inputs into it , like I'm using a EGT temp sensor and it will hook up to the scan gauge so I can monitor that and set limits on it ,so say it goes past 1200 degrees it will flash and warn me, same for all the other stuff it monitors, like AIT or ECT senors once it passes a set amount it flashes and warns you it has past what you set it at. It also does VAC/ Boost also. Thats just my opinion. I run a Autometer Vac/Boost gauge and Fuel PSI gauge, PLX wideband, Aeroforce scan gauge with EGT hook up, and thats all my gauges. Plus I have HPtuners.

I'm replacing all the gaskets, I already needed to do my head gaskets, so I figured while I have the car that far ripped apart id install a cam too. I have all the ones for the top end, but I'm still waiting on a set of heads I bought on new years.
