+1 on dowel rods and its quicker to use the TDC method for changing springs. I highly recommend the LS valve spring tool by procomp.
The head gasket kit was probably recommended because you were planning on changing lifters which would require head removal.
There are cheaper pushrods to be had; I wanna say I picked mine up at SDPC for $90 shipped.

How about cam gear? Is new cam single or 3 bolt? This almost put a hamper on my weekend cam swap... I about had a heart attack then raced to dealership.
and x3 on the dowels, a good fail safe and piece of mind. Cut 'em to length and lube em up.
