Buy better gaskets, and a 12inch extension and another 24inch extension. I have OBDI, not sure if you have it. I bought most of my stuff from summit racing. Here is all the part #'s i bought:
ARP-400-1101
CEI-109010
CEI-109011
FPP-1470
WLK-33272
WLK-33278
PSM-72C2235
PSM-82-1161
HOK-16827HKR

If your going to block off the EGR and not use AIR, just buy the race ones without the fittings.

well if you don't have state inspections, don't put on a cat, and get rid of A.I.R. and EGR. That is, if you want the most power. The "race" headers from pacesetter don't have the fittings for those. Part # PSM-72C2239 on summitracing. The only downside would be the smell from the exhaust. I didn't put on my cat, and you can smell it with windows down at a light. Also, getting rid of EGR pump will free up some weight. Your lucky, here in virginia I have to find a cool guy/friend to pass my car since it will fail.

For Gaskets and Header Bolts I used The "Percy's metal gaskets" I dont really think there is a better gasket out there.
And go with some Breslin Header bolts or something along the lines. They are locking bolts

your going to want to go with Percey's metal gaskets.
You can get them at Autozone O'rielys or summit jegs.
Go to summit and look at header bolts.
Get some stage 8 locking bolts.
I bought Breslin bolts from jegs. They are awesome and will not back off.
just go look and search on jegs and summit.
