My .02:
Save yourself some time and buy quality gaskets (percy's or the like), and replace the motor mounts while you’re in there. Both you WILL end up doing eventually and it is WAY easier to just do it once and forget it! I ended up doing the headers then replacing the motor mounts and then replacing the gaskets. Nothing is more frustrating than doing a job multiple times because of lack of planning.
If you remove the motor mount through bolts, only do one side at a time. It will move over plenty with just one pulled but if you pull them both you are in for some fun.
