Default Header Bolts/Gaskets?

Need to replace my header bolts and gaskets on my lt1. Any recommendations on what brand to get?
What them to fit nice and tight...
Thanx

I bought SBC header bolts from Advance and a set of FelPro 1406 gaskets for the headers.

ARP hardware and Mr Gasket ultra seal 5903s as per Larry at Speed Inc. Had coppers before and what a waste of money they didnt seal for crap and put the ultra seals on and perfect seal! Id pick up a set of them if not a set of Fel Pro 1406s as mentioned.

I've really like my felpro with my stage 8 locking header bolts. No leaks, no problems
