Parts needed to fix head gasket

I recently posted about why my headgasket blew. Well, now I need help ordering all the parts needed for the fix. I know I need new headgaskets, intake manifold, exhaust manifold, and the gaskets for the connect pipe in the back, but what else? Where is the best place to order this from? Is there a kit I can order that will include everything? What about head bolts, are they necessary to change?

for mine, I have used:

PB blaster for manifold bolts
gasket scraper
lots of rags
rtv for the intake manifold
head gaskets
intake gaskets
TB gasket(mine broke)
exhaust gaskets
thread sealer for bolts
ARP head bolts
coolant
motor oil/filter to flush the coolant filled oil out



and if you want to kill numerous birds with few stones, be like me and:

get headers to replace manfiold
do plugs/wires
(possibly) roller rockers/springs since heads will be off, a lot easier
