LS9 boom done. Arp studs are only needed if you plan on spraying a lot or boost.m

LS9 gaskets if you ever plan to boost it. Otherwise, GM MLS 6.0 gaskets. ARP bolts or studs (studs if you plan to boost it).

I wouldn't use a ls3 style head on that engine myself, I run GM MLS gaskets and ebay studs, working fine for me

you need to provide more details about your truck, rcsb, ecsb, crew, goals...such as n/a or boost, etc. the more details, the better help youll get especially since you only want to do it once...
