Default 88894343 Cylinder head kit, how can I be sure I got everything I needed?

Anyone know what should come in the gasket set with the part number 88894343 from GM?

Will this have all the gaskets/bolts I will need for my heads/cam install coming up in two weeks?? It looks a little skimpy from what I imagined.

Two head gaskets, two sets of exhaust manifold gaskets (one set look like it is for the LS6 exhaust port), intake manifold gaskets ??, and valve colver gaskets I believe. Bolts and a crank pulley bolt included.

Anyone know if these gaskets are correct for a 1999 Z28?

Any help would be great appreciated,

ERic

make sure you replace the M8 cylinder head bolts, I beleive they do not come with the kit. GM issued a TSB about a month ago saying to replace them.
If you are doing a heads/cam, you may want to install a new timing chain, other than that, alot of the gaskets can be re-used.

Thanks for the heads up on the M8 bolts. Are those the short ones across the top?
