head gasket/install question

I searched for head gasket and couldn't really find anything...I'll be installing my H/C next month (Stage 2 5.3 patriot heads 2.02 1.56., ls1speed comp cam 231-237 591 601 114+2)...

is this what i need to get?

Includes GM head gaskets, GM head bolts, GM water pump gaskets, GM timing cover seal, GM front seal, GM harmonic balancer. http://www.texas-speed.com/shop/item...id=87&catid=36

You won't get a balancer in the kit, just a new bolt. And yea, that kit will cover you just fine.

Patriot heads include a set of head gaskets so don't waste money on that.
