Gaskets. I heard the pacesetter gaskets suck. Im still waiting for mine to arrive from byunspeed. Its been almost a month since my buddy ordered them for me. (I gave him a junk plow truck for a set of headers) So if you order them i would suggest you dont order from him.

Just re-use your stock gaskets. If you don't want to use your stockers, then order gm metal gaskets. Many of the sponsors sell them.

o2 simms if you don't want to see a SES light or if you're not getting it tuned shortly.

you will need o2 sims unless you are going to get a dyno tune and have them tuned out.

Might want to add a set of plugs, it's really easy to crack the ceramic when doing headers (NGK TR55s)

Most definitely get spark plugs. I cracked the ceramic on a few but planned on changing them anyways. They're so easy to get to with the manifolds off. Saves alot of hassle later.

I ordered mine from speed inc and they included the O2 extensions. I never needed a tune afterwards either.

wires are not required but you may as well. bolts come with the headers but you can use the stock ones. ive also heard of buying stainless bolts with the locks on them.
