Well, you got the cam and pushrods and spring kit. Underdrive pulley and timing set.
You want to make sure you have the correct tools, a good puller and spring tool make the job much easier.
The gasket kit should include the exhaust, waterpump and timing cover... although if you don't mangle them you could re-use the timing cover and waterpump ( wont be the first time someone did that)
SDPC has a couple kits (I carry them as well) that will have all the gaskets and bolts you need. One is a GM kit and is not as complete as the Scoggins kit. Price difference is about 100 with the Scopggin kit being more complete (so more expensive)
