Well myself, I always and only use ARP head bolts and all ARP studs in the bottom end. Adding ARP bolts or studs really beefs up an otherwise stock bottom end.

As for the head gasket, I always use a Fel-Pro 1017-1, but I would try to go a bit thinner and boost the compression in this case. I would have to do a search of the head gaskets to figure out which one would be thinner.
