Re: Doing H/C this winter, what gaskets and bolts?? Timing cover gasket and water pump gaskets are optional. The stock onese are metal with the silicone seal. A timing cover crank seal is highly recommended since you have the cover off. Other than that there isn't a ton of things to do. Especially if you get some studs and either cometic gaskets or the spring steel GM gaskets.
