Here is someone that asked the same question with their LT install. It's virtual the same although I'm not sure if you would need o2 sensor extensions or not, someone will chime in I'm sure.

Yes you'll need new gaskets, and if you break a bolt, you'll need some new bolts. I'm not too sure on the O2 extensions though...my guess would be no...but I may be wrong. Someone with more knowledge...?

Well, the first thing you need to do is sell the Mac mids and get long tubes....
haha, j/k
I always reuse gaskets and bolts. My friends stock manifold gaskets were fine at 115k miles...
