I will also recommend the ARP studs. The torquing procedure is more like a stretching bolt procedure, reach that torque, and turn 1/4 turn, and another 1/4 turn. If you don't buy ARP stud, I think you should use new bolt since they are stretched.

Other than that, straight forward job.

You can use the stock Toyota headgasket.

I also recommned using the OEM Toyota coolant.

We have ARP studs if you decide to go that route.

I recommend also doing a leak-down test before you remove the head. If you remove the cams prior to the leak-down test the results will be less fallible too.
