all you'll need is a new crank bolt, and a new front main seal .... timing cover gasket, valve cover gaskets, etc.. are all reusable (some have even reused the front main seal but i'd advise against)
what's the kit come with? When I did my heads/cam I got a complete kit... and found out afterwards Most of the gaskets are reusable for 99+ cars... so no sense wasting money if you don't have to...

i went ahead and got it. the gaskets being reusable is cool, but new is better. you cant go wrong i guess. i got my *** covered now just incase.
