This spring i'm going to be doing a head swap (ported lt1's)
What is everything I'm going to need to complete this?

Thanks

The heads of course, head gaskets(GM, felpro, the Impy's, its your coice), 4 crush washers(pn GM-10108689) for the coolant crossover tube, thread sealer, lots of rags, some coolant, and a razor to scrape the old gasket off. I changed out my head bolts when I had my heads off so that might not be a bad idea either but its not necasary.

-Head gaskets
-rockers
-pushrods
-studs
-guideplates
-Banjo bolts, washers
-Intake gaskets
-Valvecover gaskets

I appreciate it now, doesn't thunder racing sell a head swap gasket set?

Like my cam install, there was always something missing

whats the banjo bolt and are the crush washers neccesary?

They need to be replaced for the coolant cross-over pipe.

If they look anything like mine, youll want to replace them. They are only like $4 for a set of 4 from CM.
