Check the sponsors to the right for gaskets and bolts. I think I saw them at MTI or Tunder Racing when I was just surfing around.
For head work I know they unshroud the valves by taking a little bit of metal out around the combustion chamber, file down the metal around the intake valve (not the actual intake valve itself) but the metal on the head where it flows by the stem. That one is hard to explain without a picture. They also make the intake on the head a little taller by grinding some metal out, and they should port match the head and gasket/intake manifold. See if you can get it on a flow bench for befor and after numbers too.
