Ls6 valley cover(comes with new gasket and bolts), you don't really need to but it is a better PCV setup and will get rid of all the hoses. At minimum I would say 2 new gm knock sensors and a new wiring harness. Just be careful when removing the intake don't snap off the Oil pressure sensor on the back of the block.
